Wear It with Space - Chapter 38
When Elder Jingchen came next month, Shen Ling had already practiced Lingyue swordsmanship over a thousand times, but compared to the three, she was still inferior to others. Therefore, Elder Jingchen chose two of the three people she had previously selected.
After Elder Jingchen left, the remaining outer disciples were very discouraged for a while. Shen Ling was disappointed and disappointed, but she quickly refreshed her spirit and devoted herself to the practice of swordsmanship.
The experience in the previous life told her that as long as she made up her mind to accomplish one thing, there was almost nothing that was impossible. So what if his qualifications are mediocre, as long as he practiced swordsmanship diligently, Shen Ling believes that next year, he will have a chance to be selected.
Shen Ling followed the academy’s work and rest schedule, and went to Baihua Valley to practice swords every day before dawn. After taking a bath in the potion at night, he inserted the door of the room into the space and practiced swordsmanship.
A few months later, she clearly felt that her swordsmanship had improved. When she was using the sword, she felt that her movements became lighter and more agile. The sword style she used already possessed some power, and the blade was able to cut wherever she pointed. Some vegetation branches and leaves growing around the bottom.
Early that morning, instead of practicing swords in Baihua Valley as usual, she searched for a clean place near Lingcao Valley. Next year these outer disciples will be fifteen years old. Some outer disciples have no hope of becoming inner disciples. Although they are in Baihua Valley, their minds have already flown home. Shen Ling was impatient to listen to them, so he chose such a place.
After selecting the place, Shen Ling began to chop off some thorny trees and plants around it, but this move surprised two pheasants living nearby. Since Shen Ling was wearing it, three meals a day have been vegetables and rice, and she has long been tired of eating. Now that I saw two pheasants, where would they be willing to let them go, I saw the two pheasants flapping their wings flying up and down towards the distance, and they chased the opposite side with light work.
However, after a half-hearted time, Shen Ling caught up with one of the pheasants and solved the pheasant in front of him with a slash with the sword. Then she went after the other one, the other one was very clever, flew into a dense woodland, and Shen Ling took some effort to catch it.
When Shen Ling carried the pheasant and walked back, he realized that the forest he was deep into was extremely dense. The sunlight was almost completely blocked by the dense branches and leaves. With the surrounding humid air, Shen Ling suddenly thought of a particularly precious species of bacteria.
The reason for this idea was that after she walked through it, she discovered that the Lingcao Valley where these outer disciples lived had many precious herbs. In addition, the daily food of these people is not exquisite, but it is much better than ordinary farmers. Shen Ling guessed privately that it was estimated that the precious herbs around it were the daily consumption of Lingyue Palace.
In her opinion, the Lingxiu Peak where they live is sparsely populated and the air is fresh, which is in line with the growth conditions of those precious herbs. Therefore, not only are the precious herbs in Lingcao Valley, there should also be precious herbs in other places.
With this thought in mind, Shen Ling searched the forest where he was a little bit. Under her careful search, she not only found several kinds of edible straw mushrooms, but also found the precious strain of her mind, wild Lingzhi.
In the last world, Shen Ling used his points to upgrade the space to level 4 after being admitted to the Jinshi, and the area of black land was expanded to the size of one acre. Behind Shen Ling consciously planted some more precious medicinal materials. It is a pity that most of the valuable medicinal materials such as wild ginseng and wild ganoderma are grown in deep mountain forests.
After Shen Ling became the county magistrate, he had ordered people to search for it several times, but the harvest was not great. Only a three-year-old wild ginseng was retrieved. As for the wild Ganoderma lucidum, he never found it.
Now, Shen Ling squatted on a dead tree trunk, looked at the half-handed wild Chichi, smiled, and finally let her find it.
She carefully planted the straw mushrooms and this wild Ganoderma lucidum into the space, and then began to deal with the two pheasants.
Lingcao Valley is in charge of their diet by a woman named Tao, who is a vegetarian all year round, because the Lingxiu Peak where they live is too far away from people’s homes. So Po Tao only went down the mountain twice a year to buy grain, and then cultivated a vegetable plot near Lingcao Valley. This is the source of their three meals a day.
Shen Ling felt that even if he took these two pheasants back, it was estimated that Mrs. Tao would not make them for her. So after Shen Ling packed up the two pheasants, he picked up some dry wood and took out a clay pot from the space. The pheasants were still stewed and delicious.
When it was simmering, Shen Ling took out some dried shiitake mushrooms from the space, washed them and threw them into the pot. She remembered that there seemed to be some silver noodles in the space. Then, after eating the meat, she would have a bowl of chicken noodles.
I don’t know if it was her martial arts training that caused her appetite to increase or she hadn’t eaten meat for a long time. In short, Shen Ling ate one of the pheasant stewed and drank most of the soup. After eating and drinking, Shen Ling put the remaining pheasant and chicken soup back into the space, rested for a while before starting to practice the sword.
At noon, she didn’t return to Lingcao Valley either. Because of her outstanding appearance, Ding Zhi always showed some arrogance unintentionally when getting along with others. Over time, few of the outer disciples got close to her. After Shen Ling came, she was afraid that someone would see that she was wrong, and she would try to minimize contact with other people. Therefore, Shen Ling felt that no one would pay attention if he didn’t go back to eat a meal. Even if someone noticed it, I guess they wouldn’t ask her.
After practicing the sword in the afternoon, Shen Ling took the sword and returned to his residence. As expected, no one asked her about not coming back for dinner at noon. Soon after she returned to her room, another woman surnamed Guo delivered medicinal herbs for the evening medicinal bath.
This medicinal bath has been soaking since the day Ding Zhi and the others got started. There are a total of more than a dozen medicinal materials, some of which are the medicinal materials Shen Ling saw in Lingcao Valley, and some are medicinal materials she has never seen before.
Shen Ling went to the kitchen and fetched hot water and poured it into a half-height wooden barrel. Then he threw the medicinal materials in. After the hot water in the wooden barrel turned darker, he took off his clothes and sat in the barrel. When taking a medicated bath, the skin will feel a little pain, but the effect is obvious.
At least when Shen Ling came back after practicing the sword every day, as long as he soaked in the medicinal bath, he would not feel any soreness when he got up the next day. And her skin is getting better and better, although she can’t compare to Elder Jingchen, it’s much better than the average person.
Shen Ling thinks that as long as she can enter the inner door and continue to enjoy this kind of treatment, she must be able to have such fine white as snow skin in time. Coupled with her outstanding appearance in this life, Shen Ling feels that if she can really make a name in the arena, then she can work hard in the direction of being the first beauty in martial arts.
This is not in vain for her to come to this world.
After soaking in the medicinal bath, Shen Ling simply tidied up before plugging in the door and stepping into the space. The air in the space is still so fresh. After such a long time, Shen Ling has discovered that whether it is reading, sleeping, or practicing swordsmanship, good results can be achieved. For example, studying in the outside world is sometimes disturbed by the environment and cannot concentrate on it.
But because the surroundings are quiet in the space, the mood will be particularly peaceful, and I will be more focused when doing things. Another point is that the air here is very fresh, and you will quickly enter a deep sleep when you sleep, and when you study hard or practice swords, your energy will be particularly good, and you will not feel tired easily.
Just like studying in an academy, after Shen Ling practiced swords, he often slept in the space. When you wake up like this, you will feel very energetic. Originally Ding Zhi’s body was very good. After staying in the space for a long time, Shen Ling felt that now this body would not be sick for decades.
Such a fulfilling and busy life is very fast, and one year has passed in the blink of an eye.
When Elder Jingchen came back, instead of letting them use only one sword technique as before, he asked them to practice Lingyue sword technique from beginning to end.
Shen Ling hadn’t practiced in vain this year, his sword was flying and agile, instantly comparing others to the afternoon.
Finally, not surprisingly, Shen Ling and another outer disciple were selected by Elder Jingchen. After being selected, Elder Jingchen gave them two half a day to go back and pack their luggage. After Shen Ling and the disciple named Xu Qingrou returned, the other outer disciples were also packing their luggage, and they would soon be sent back to their parents by the people of Lingyue Palace. Perhaps it was already prepared, but the ten outside disciples were not very sad, and they were still in the mood to talk and laugh.
Shen Ling packed up her luggage, and Xu Qingrou came to look for her before she left the room. Xu Qingrou was the one who failed the election among the three whom Elder Jingchen fancyed last year. Her aptitude was considered relatively good among the outer disciples, but she was a little bit playful and not very careful. If not, her qualifications will not be selected until now.
She smiled a little jumpy: “Are you packed? I had a hunch that I would be selected, so I packed my luggage early, but I didn’t expect to be selected.”
Shen Ling smiled faintly: “It’s already packed, let’s go!”
Elder Jingchen stayed in Baihua Valley to wait for them. Xu Qingrou was always talking on the road from Lingcao Valley to Baihua Valley. What she said most was the outer disciples who were about to leave, such as whether they would leave after they left. Thinking of this, will you have a better life in the future?
Shen Ling felt that they would think of this place. After all, they had been here since they were seven years old. People from Lingyue Palace took care of everything from their names to food, clothing, housing and transportation.
Thinking of this, Shen Ling couldn’t help but look at the elder Jingchen not far away, wondering if the inner disciple’s life would be the same as the outer disciple’s life without worrying about food, clothing, shelter, and transportation, just practice every day.
