Chapter 205: The river water has risen

~7 min read 1,334 words

The mother and daughter could almost do everything they could. Whether Shen Que could survive depended on God's will.

Jiang Xiaoxiao returned to the room and began her day-to-day ability training.

That pale blue crystal core was placed on the table, and she didn't absorb it.

Her mother said that her ability had just reached the third tier not long ago, and the realm was unstable, while this second-tier water-type crystal core contained huge energy, and she couldn't fully absorb it with her current ability, so she needed to wait for a while.

Jiang Xiaoxiao also knew that she couldn't become a fat man in one breath, so she could only take it step by step.

Also in another room.

Jiang Wei returned to the room this time, I don't know if she was stimulated by her daughter, and didn't fall asleep as usual, but sat cross-legged on the bed and practiced.

However, she practiced for a night, which was just a drop in the bucket.

Ninth-tier space ability, without a large amount of crystal cores providing energy, relying solely on practice is basically no improvement.

Suddenly, Jiang Wei opened her eyes.

She thought of that ginseng, which had been stored in her space, and all signs of life were paused.

If... use ability water to irrigate that ginseng, could it also urge it to produce crystal cores...

Her space ability, the biggest advantage is that it does not limit the attributes of the crystal cores absorbed.

That is to say, whether it is a crystal core without attributes, or a crystal core of one of the five attributes of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, for her, it can be fully absorbed.

You know, in the world where ability users are prevalent in the apocalypse, many ability users can only absorb crystal cores of the same attribute as their own abilities. If they absorb crystal cores of other attributes, it is easy to cause energy riots within themselves, thereby falling in realm, and in severe cases, they will go into fire and demon, losing their lives.

Jiang Wei's space ability, compared to those who call the wind and rain in the apocalypse, summoning thunder and controlling spirits, is not a powerful ability. Besides being able to hold things, it can be said to be useless.

But, only one point is different.

She can ignore crystal cores of any attribute and absorb them all, which led to her ability upgrading extremely fast, reaching the ninth tier in just ten years.

Ninth-tier ability, in the apocalypse where ability users are everywhere, is almost the top existence.

Therefore, even if her space ability is not outstanding, no one dares to offend her easily.

Jiang Xiaoxiao's ability different from ordinary people opened up a new idea for her. Can she also obtain energy by mass "breeding" these crystal cores...

What is the tenth-tier space ability like, she hasn't seen it yet.

Not only her, even the top experts in the previous life haven't seen how powerful the tenth-tier ability is.

After all, no one's ability has ever reached the tenth tier.

Jiang Wei wants to be this first person.

Time soon came to the next day.

The mother and daughter got up early, and while Chunya hadn't come to feed the rabbits, they went to the ear room.

Shen Que was still in a coma, without any signs of waking up.

Jiang Wei probed his breath, but it was much more energetic than yesterday, and then took out the stethoscope from the space and pressed it on his heart to listen. The heartbeat was also much stronger than yesterday.

Although still sleeping, he had indeed escaped the danger of life, and it would probably take a few days of rest to wake up.

Jiang Xiaoxiao habitually poured some ability water into Shen Que's mouth. Her attention was all on the stethoscope her mother took out, and she didn't notice the lips under her fingertips move slightly.

"You should feed less of this water." Jiang Wei lowered her head and checked the wound on Shen Que's body, and frowned instantly: "His wound is recovering too fast. If he wakes up and finds out, he will definitely be suspicious."

"Oh oh." Jiang Xiaoxiao heard this, immediately withdrew her hand, and said with some worry: "Mother, if he wakes up and asks us how we saved him, how should we answer?"

With Shen Que's injury, it is almost certain death in this era. If Shen Que wakes up and asks how he was saved and what medicine was used to treat him, what should they say?

Jiang Wei was silent for a moment, obviously unable to think of any concealment strategy, so she simply said: "Let's talk about it later..."

After changing the medicine for Shen Que's wound, the mother and daughter left the room.

The moment the door closed, the man on the bed slowly opened his eyes.

He glanced at the closed door with faint eyes, stared for two seconds, his face was as indifferent as ever, expressionless.

Subsequently, he withdrew his gaze and closed his eyes again.

Today Chunya came especially late. The mother and daughter finished breakfast, and Chunmiao came in a hurry with a basket of fresh grass.

Usually Chunya went to cut grass before dawn, so every time Jiang Xiaoxiao got up, Chunya was already chopping grass in their backyard to feed rabbits, cleaning chicken coops and rabbit nests, and could be pulled by Jiang Xiaoxiao to eat breakfast together after finishing the work.

Jiang Xiaoxiao specially left an egg for Chunya, waiting for her arrival with eyes wide open.

This girl is not big, but she is the most lively and smart, and usually can bring Jiang Xiaoxiao a lot of gossip in the village.

Jiang Xiaoxiao had long been used to her existence. Today she was late, and she couldn't help but worry a little. Wouldn't something happen?

Just when she was about to go out to see, Chunya finally arrived with her small basket.

"Xiaoxiao, let me tell you, the river in the village has risen. When I passed by this morning, I saw many people there using bamboo baskets to catch small fish and shrimp!" As soon as Chunya entered, she shared her findings excitedly.

She was also because of this reason that she stayed for a longer time, which led to being late.

"Really?!" Jiang Xiaoxiao was also excited when she heard this.

She had been in this world for more than half a year, not to mention that she hadn't even seen the shadow of fish and shrimp, and she hadn't seen the river in the village a few times.

Mainly because the drought was too severe when she first came, leading to the drying up of the river. She didn't expect that after a few autumn rains, the river water rose, so she had to go and see!

Chunya was also full of excitement: "Xiaoxiao, wait for me to finish the work and I will take you to catch small fish!"

After speaking, she carried the basket and went to the backyard.

"Eat this first before going." Jiang Xiaoxiao hurriedly stuffed the egg she was holding into her hand.

Chunya was stunned. The egg in her hand was still hot. She knew the time for Jiang Xiaoxiao's family to eat breakfast, and it had been a long time, but this egg had been kept hot by her.

She couldn't help but feel warm in her heart and smiled sweetly: "Xiaoxiao, thank you."

"You're welcome, you eat first, eat and then go to work, I'll go find my mother and ask her to get a fish basket." After speaking, Jiang Xiaoxiao went to find her mother.

At this moment, Jiang Wei was filling a pit in the corner of the courtyard wall, not knowing what she was burying.

Jiang Xiaoxiao walked up and saw that it was the ginseng they picked up from the mountain!
