Chapter 168: The Correct Use Of Space

To him, such a punishment was like a joke.
At night, blood spread all the way in the cell where Tong Bin was imprisoned. It was not until early in the morning that he was discovered. The prisoner inside hugged his broken arm. His eyes were dull and he was unconscious. His teeth were shattered and his chin was displaced. His blood and saliva wet his clothes. No matter what others asked, he would only tremble.
Before County Magistrate Shen could find out who did this, the government office received a letter from a beggar. The letter listed in detail the innocent people that Tong Bin had wrongly accused and falsely accused a few years ago. It was outrageous.
The county magistrate still hired a doctor for him, but Tong Bin wasn’t happy because he would rather die like this than be sent to the mine after experiencing the pain of his broken bones and never be free again.
Of course, Xiaoxiao did not know this at the moment. She was having fun in the space.
[Upgrade is successful. Current space level: Four.]
[The food processing factory function has been successfully activated. The time flow in the farmland has increased by four times.]
[The space farm’s livestock function has been successfully activated. The time flow is four times faster.]
[Additional ability of space, ingredient identification.]
[Reward for space upgrade. One random seed. Do you want to sow it?)
A series of notifications made Xiaoxiao react for a while. [I’ll plant it.]
If she did not plant it, the farmland would be idle. She did not have any extra points to buy other seeds now. No matter what it was, she would plant it first.
The space sowing function was convenient. Xiaoxiao did not need to do it herself. She went to the food processing factory to experience the feeling of technology. For the convenience of cooking, she placed all kinds of food in the space warehouse. She could take them out to practice now.
The milk was processed into butter and cream, the egg whites and cream were whipped, and even the last step of baking could be solved by the space. In its words: [Other than basic operations, I can perfectly replicate any steps that Master has handled!]
In other words, no matter what cooking method it was, as long as Xiaoxiao personally cooked it once, she could get the space to do it for her if she needed it in the future. She had really gotten a treasure!
Sensing its Master’s joy, the space also let out a few electronic sounds happily. Then, it cooperated with Xiaoxiao to make a perfect cream cake with the processing factory. It asked Xiaoxiao: [Master, do you want to use this as a birthday gift for Big Brother?]
However, Xiaoxiao put the cake into the warehouse. [No, of course I have to make the gift for Big Brother myself. Besides, if 1 take such a thing out of thin air, how am 1 going to explain it later?]
That was true. It was not disappointed that it had received Master’s affirmation and praise. It said happily to Xiaoxiao, “By the way, Master, our livestock function has been activated. You can raise some chickens, ducks, cows, sheep, and so on in it later. They will all grow at four times the speed! Moreover, when they grow to the optimal maturity period, you can choose to let them maintain their current state or enter the warehouse to become meat reserves.”
Xiaoxiao’s eyes lit up. She wished she could go to the county to buy some small animals now. Then, she suddenly paused. [1 say, Little Space. Since I can buy birds and animals from outside to rear, does that mean that 1 can also take the seeds bought outside to the space farmland to plant?]
The space replied instantly: [Master is right!] Master finally understood!
God knew how painful it had been to hold it in for the past few days!
Xiaoxiao wanted to knock her stupid head. Previously, she had waited to exchange points for seeds because the production of rice and wheat seeds in the space was high. However, putting aside this requirement, she could totally take some spices, vegetables, and even medicinal herbs to plant in the space!
It was still the same saying. This farmland was idle!
[Why didn’t you remind me?]
The space admitted its mistake honestly: [I’m sorry, Master. We have a set space rule that can only be explored by the host…]
Xiaoxiao waved her hand. [I don’t blame you. I didn’t think of it myself, but it’s not too late now.]
She did as she was told. She jumped out of the space and searched her home first. Vegetable seeds, cucumber seeds, cabbage seedlings. She would throw them into the farmland first. Space would sort them out for her.
She did not dare to take too much. Madam Song knew the number of seeds at home. It would arouse suspicion if she took too many. Even so, she worked for most of the night.
She couldn’t take too many seeds, so she slipped into the vegetable garden and rummaged through the vegetables that had already grown. Anyway, she was the one cooking. If her mother found out, she would say that she had cooked too many vegetables! She was really too smart!
The next day, Rong Yan saw Xiaoxiao under the cinnamon tree at the entrance of the village. He didn’t know what she was thinking, but her gaze was fixed on the tree that had nothing but branches and leaves. From time to time, she would smile foolishly.
Seeing him, Xiaoxiao’s eyes lit up as she ran over in big strides. She only braked when she was in front of Rong Yan. “Little Big Brother, if you enter the forest next time, can you bring me along?”
Rong Yan was puzzled. “You? What are you going to do?”
Xiaoxiao chuckled. “Dig wild vegetables! Pick fruits! Find fungi! Dig out bird eggs!”
She wanted to pull everything into her space now, even the tree roots she picked up from the ground. If it weren’t for the space shouting for her to stop, she would have moved the entire mountain into her space to make up for the gains she had foolishly missed these days.
If wild vegetables were planted, they would grow into a large field of wild vegetables, right?
If she threw the fruits in, there would be many fruit trees, right?
After putting the mushrooms in, would they spew out countless spores?
Would an entire nest of birds hatch when the eggs were put in?
Even if the tree root was buried and it could not produce juicy fruits, it could grow into a big tree and provide her with wood, right?
From the looks of it, wouldn’t her space develop into a small world in the future, a gourmet warehouse and logistics fortress for her use?
She imagined the future too well and couldn’t help but pat Rong Yan’s shoulder. “From now on, I’ll definitely make you fat!”
Pm so rich that I can support io of you!
Her bold words changed in Rong Yan’s ears. He glanced at Xiaoxiao’s small hand on his shoulder, clenched his fist, and coughed lightly. “1 thought about your suggestion yesterday. I think it’s okay.”
Xiaoxiao, who was overly excited, only remembered what she had said yesterday after a while. “Have you decided to open a shop with me?”
Rong Yan nodded and she jumped up. “That’s great!”
Rong Yan did not ask about Tong Bin anymore. He felt that Ning Xiaoxiao should be like this. As long as she was happy, he would deal with that evil person.
After jumping, Xiaoxiao reminded him happily, “Remember to go home for dinner later!”
Going home was another term that made people feel warm.
Behind him, Yun Yi looked at Xiaoxiao, who had run away. There was a fatherly smile on his lips. Rong Yan turned around and rubbed his arms with a frown. “How did it go?”
Yun Yi went forward and made sure that there was no one around before saying, “Tong Bin’s crimes were all sent to the county office in the manner that the victim reported. Now that his arm is broken, he will be sent to the mine in a few days. Master, do you need me to…” He made a gesture of raising his hand and cutting down, but Rong Yan shook his head. “Since he was once a lawyer, it’s not surprising for him to meet an ‘old friend’ when he was mining..”
