Lady Lin's First-ever Journey to Immortality Chapter 362 - Understand

Chapter 362 Understand

The summer vacation of the University of Chuan comes as scheduled after the final exam in early July.

Lin Luodong has always been fickle minded since he came back from Nihon more than a month ago, and now he can finally concentrate on his work. He understands a little better why his sister didn’t want him to be involved in those things too early. Low personal ability is only a minor reason and the main reason is his state of mind can’t withstand tests yet.

For example, he has always heard some cla.s.smates discussing the “silent film” of Mount Fuji in self-study evenings after he returned from Nihon. They thought it’s really strange that people could only see volcanic ash but couldn’t hear the sound of eruption. Could he tell them it was because the G.o.ddess guarding Mount Fuji chose to perish together with Orochi so that the tragedy could be avoided?

For example, when he heard his cla.s.smates discussing the blurred pictures taken by Nihon Satellite Surveillance to confirm the miracle of the G.o.ddess of Mount Fuji, could he tell them his sister was even in some of these photos?

In fact, he even made a deal with the G.o.ddess of Mount Fuji!

Lin Luodong lived a hard life because of these secrets. They affected not only his study but also the state of mind of his personal ability.

After finishing the final exam, Lin Luodong is waiting for Huang Weijian and Wei Xue. The three of them will wait for fatty Ma Ming from his school to meet them. Lin Luodong really wants to fly back to Rong City to see if Lin Luoran is still angry at them. The four of them finally decide to take the train back to Rong City after discussion because they care about Wei Xue’s feelings.

In 2018, prices go up with a comparatively slow pace and it finally reaches a level that ordinary people both love and hate. For example, the special airfare including CAF and airport fee from the capital to Rong City is 2000 yuan. Wei Xue’s living expenses now are only 1500 yuan. 2000 yuan is the special airfare and now is even the summer tourist season. Flying back to Rong City is really too expensive for Wei Xue.

The fatty is here in his showy roadster after Wei Xue finished packing in her dormitory.

It’s a completely surprise for all three of them: a young girl with exquisite makeup is holding fatty’s arm to a.s.sert her sovereignty over him in the front seat.

Well, is she fatty’s girlfriend?

Introverted Huang Weijian also can’t contain himself for surprise. Fatty is really good at keeping secrets. He suddenly has a girlfriend and now he even wants to take her “home” to spend the summer vacation together. They really can’t get used to it immediately. Looking at the roadster, there are only two seats left at the back. How to manage it?

Eventually, Wei Xue’s luggage sits on the last two seats.

The three of Lin Luodong take a taxi and go to their apartment near the University of Chuan.

Ma Ming follows behind them happily in his roadster. His girlfriend holding him says pretentiously, “It’s so obvious that you are different from them. Are you guys so close that you can even tolerate taking the train?”

Fatty blows a smoke ring and stares at his girlfriend with warnings in his eyes, “Do you mean they are just poor students? Sometimes what you see is not the truth. You are very clever and you should know what to do.”

Ma Ming is certainly not as stupid as he looks. His girlfriend is a little manipulative and he is just too lazy to expose her tricks. He considers it as an entertainment.

He buys her famous brand bags or everything she wants. He can even take her back to Rong City but she cannot step on his bottom line.

Lin Luodong, Huang Weijian, and Wei Xue are Ma Ming’s bottom line. Ma Ming knows he will probably take over from his dad, becoming an owner of a privately-owned company, and do a lot of big business in the future. Fatty also knows he will never forget the tofu jelly three yuan a bowl which the four of them sold together in the hot sun in the summer vacation that year.

Each of them earned more than 10,000 yuan that summer. Ma Ming doesn’t value the money. What he values most is that he made money and someone regarded him as a real friend for the first time in his life.

Friendship is something that can last a long time. Starting with fighting, their friendship grew in primary school. They became really close to each other in junior high school. Ma Ming is more certain that their friendship is very precious especially after he left home and met various people in the university of the capital.

He touches the jade plate on his neck. They never treat him as an outsider so he naturally regards Lin Luodong and Huang Weijian as his brothers.

They arrive at where Lin Luodong and Huang Weijian live. Ma Ming’s girlfriend finally changes her dismissive face when she sees the duplex apartment which is too luxurious for students.

Ma Ming’s roadster is left in the apartment’s underground parking lot after packing. The five of them head for the train station together.

These young people finally have the energy to chat when they don’t feel sultry after squeezing into the train.

“Well, do you think my sister has forgiven us?” Lin Luodong prods Huang Weijian’s arm. Huang Weijian rolls his eyes and says dumbly, “I don’t know.”

He also feels very guilty. If he had known their liberty this time would make Lin Luoran so angry, he wouldn’t have taken Lin Luodong to Nihon secretly. Ah, curiosity can really kill people.

Tong Ya, Ma Ming’s girlfriend, is curious, “Is your sister an iron woman? Why do you look so scared of her?”

Lin Luodong freezes. Who says they scare of her sister?

Wei Xue smiles, “It is out of respect so we care about how sister Lin thinks of us… Anyway, I think you two deserve it!”

As long as she thinks about the miserable time when they left princess Cui Wanlu to herself, Wei Xue can’t help taking pleasure in their misfortune now.

Tong Ya wants to ask what the trouble is. However, it’s the first day she meets these three people, and she thinks it’s out of boundary to do so.

Tong Ya can see that Ma Ming talks to them very happily and these three men all care about Wei Xue’s feelings very much. She admits she is jealous—she can tell Wei Xue is also a girl from an ordinary family but why can she attract these wealthy young men as the moon is surrounded by stars?

Tong Ya has no idea. However, besides love, there is something called friendship in this world, which can make people forget ident.i.ty difference and hang out freely.

…

Lin Luoran is actually not home at this moment when Lin Luodong and Huang Weijian are still worrying about it.

Lin Luoran is under the waters of Dongting, using the Sea-view Pavilion to see everything around Mount Jun and Dongting. The trip to Nihon inspires her a lot, especially when the remnants of G.o.ddess guarding the mountain chose to die with Orochi together. Lin Luoran was deeply moved.

Is it G.o.d? Even it was just newly-independent remnants.

Lin Luoran suddenly realizes she is occupying the G.o.dhead but in fact she does not do enough to protect the place she should guard.

Precisely, she had just occupied the reputation like a game but never thought of how to be a qualified “G.o.d” before all these things happened.

Lin Luoran comes to the Dongting Dragon Palace to meditate also because she needs to make a convenient weapon for Zeng Tian.

She casually helps some devout believers to solve their troubles during this period and she finds the fire spots of the power of faith become brighter. There is a long way to go before becoming a G.o.d and maybe such kind of acc.u.mulation is necessary.

The one-meter-long golden carp in the Dragon Palace pool has changed its scales and looks even more prestigious. Lin Luoran is expecting it will get the inheritance by awakening bloodline one day— Diliu Syrup is too visionary. Although the awakening bloodline is not very realistic, there is still a small chance if this golden carp keeps growing up.

Lin Luoran occasionally uses Wakan to purify the impurities in these fishes and shrimps. She feeds them with good things from s.p.a.ce and hopes these good external conditions can make up for the deficiency of their congenital disorder.

Lin Luoran has figured out the difference among the three different colors of soil in s.p.a.ce.

The red soil has the best Reiki and it is the best place to plant spirit medicine and spirit herbs. The black soil is slightly worse than the red one but is still the same as the previous average level of s.p.a.ce. It can be said that the planted things here are nothing different from those planted before the upheaval of s.p.a.ce, whether in terms of Reiki or taste.

As for the yellow soil, Lin Luoran finds things planted here are still very delicious without changes. But in terms of Reiki, it is much worse than those on the black soil. Vegetables and fruit grown here are just good-tasting with little Reiki which are similar to the goods from the backyard of the Lins’ villa—Lin Luoran thinks Reiki of s.p.a.ce is all gathered on spirit medicine and spirit herbs planted on the red soil.

Anyway, the harvesting schedule has not changed. Lin Luoran can still choose to plant things that she usually needs on the medium-efficiency black soil while some common trees on the yellow soil.

The soul wood has occupied the largest place on the black soil. Lin Luoran is not a wicked person. She has known Yang Lisha took the soul wood for saving the Acacia tree, so she won’t do some evil things like transplanting the soul wood to the yellow soil with little Reiki.

The soul wood is now three thousand years old. Only two people together can totally hug it.

Such kind of creature is really unique. She has cut a few branches and inserted them in the corner of the yellow soil long ago. Anyway, there are acres of land there and planting them does not take up much s.p.a.ce.

Lin Luoran put many sundries under the apple tree. She has put them inside since she could enter the wooden hut and had her own room.

Unspent scorpion sh.e.l.l, millennium Luminous Sand, some clothes which she rarely wears after buying them, monkey fruit wine, spirit wine made by herself, beautiful jade materials which she exchanged elixir with but now without any Reiki after used in her self-cultivation… each cabinet in the room is like Doraemon’s pocket, stuffed with things of different categories. She still cannot fill these cabinets up. With her spiritual power, she changes them into something that she can put whatever she wants in it even when she is outside the s.p.a.ce.

s.p.a.ce seems to finally treat her as its owner after she got the “tear pearl” from the little girl Momo. Everything becomes very convenient.

The soul wood has grown up and Yang Lisha’s Acacia tree can’t wait anymore. Mrs. Lin is already in her fifties now. Lin Luoran can’t postpone her trip to Penglai any longer.

She should be able to go to look for Mount Penglai without any worry after dealing with some stuff to guarantee the safety of her families.

Jade stairs appear on Lin Luoran’s hands.

This was the road to the heaven that the fake saintess took when she was about to leave the earth. The bright star atlas there contains countless magic circles. The crazy Taoist said people of the Bearing Essence could understand the star atlas behind the first stair. Lin Luoran wants to refine weapons and it is not enough to rely on the “Weapon Introduction” or simple defensive magic circles.

She has to integrate her understandings of the star atlas and comes up with her own magic circle.

Only by mastering the essence can she change magic circles flexibly with the Five Elements. It may be a long journey but Lin Luoran has to take the first step.
