In the ward.
Lin Xing was sitting cross-legged on the bed, relaxing his mind and practicing his meditation skills.
"Lin Xing, what is this thing flying around?"
"Lin Xing, how can I buy what this woman is selling?"
"Lin Xing, what is this?"
Listening to the increasingly louder sound of the TV, and the questioning voices that sounded from time to time... For some reason, Lin Xing felt that this made him more irritated than the mountain god eating people.
Finally, he couldn't help but open his eyes, and saw a graceful figure floating in the air, with a pair of big eyes staring at the TV screen.
Lin Xing always felt that the saint of the Heavenly Will Sect in front of him seemed to have given him a different impression ever since she came here.
"Lin Xing, stop practicing. You have no idea here. What effect will it have if you practice?" Jing Shiyu pointed at the TV and said, "Come and explain to me, what is this and where can you buy it here?" ?"
Lin Xing said: "Director Lu said that although practicing here cannot directly increase the progress of skills, it is not completely ineffective. At least the longer you practice here, the more efficient you will be in practicing skills after the Great Zhou Dynasty."
"According to their latest attempts, many martial arts masters, athletes, and soldiers in our world have made rapid progress since reaching the Great Zhou Dynasty."
After saying that, Lin Xing looked at the TV again and found that Jing Shiyu was watching the military channel, which was introducing the latest aircraft carrier launched.
He said helplessly: "You can't buy this."
Jing Shiyu said seriously: "I am very rich."
Lin Xing said: "It's useless no matter how much money you have."
Seeing that Jing Shiyu wanted to open her mouth and ask again, Lin Xing stopped her and said, "I'll ask them to change your room. Don't you think two people are disturbing each other in the same room? I'll ask them to hire someone else to accompany you."
Jing Shiyu chuckled and said nonchalantly: "You are my alternate apprentice. I stay with you to protect you."
Compared to contacting other people in this world, Jing Shiyu would rather stay with Lin Xing. At least Lin Xing didn't have that disgusting look on his face.
After a while, Jing Shiyu pointed to the tall buildings on the TV and said, "Where is this? Is it close to here?"
Lin Xing sighed, thinking that the other party had helped him a lot, and finally stopped meditating.
He looked at the content on the TV, thought for a while and said: "It's quite far away from us, but there are similar places nearby. It takes about half an hour to go back and forth. Do you want to go and see it?"
Jing Shiyu looked at the skyscrapers on the TV curiously, and a flash of emotion flashed in his eyes when he heard this, but in the end he shook his head: "Forget it, I'm afraid of missing the opening of the fairy gate, I have to hurry up and go back."
Seeing the flash of emotion in the other person's eyes, Lin Xing said, "Then why don't you go hang out downstairs? You've helped me this time, and I can treat you to a meal."
"Okay." Jing Shiyu floated over and said with a smile, "I will accept the filial piety from my apprentice."
Lin Xing looked at the ancient style dress he was wearing and said, "Why don't you change your clothes, otherwise it will be too eye-catching."
After a while, Lin Xing looked at Jing Shiyu, who had put on a T-shirt and trousers, and had her long hair wrapped in a sunhat. Although she was still overly beautiful as if she had added several layers of beauty, she still didn't look like It was so dazzling just now.
He added: "Don't be so floating when you go out later."
Jing Shiyu said: "I'm not stupid. Do you think I can float in the Marshal's Mansion? Aren't we the only two here?"
Lin Xing looked at Jing Shiyu falling back to the ground and asked curiously: "Can you fly?"
Jing Shiyu waved her hands and said: "Can you pull yourself up to the sky with your hands? No, right? You can only hold yourself up with your hands. Your spiritual mind is a part of your body, the same as your hands, so the most you can do is lift yourself up. It’s impossible for a person to actually fly if he’s only a few meters above the ground.”
Lin Xing asked curiously: "So you are also a Taoist heritage, right? Do you also know how to spell?"
Jing Shiyu explained: "If you want to understand Taotong's inheritance, there are many skill combinations that meet the requirements, and you don't necessarily need spell skills. Although I can also spell, I didn't learn it to understand Taotong's inheritance."
Next, the two left the ward, and Jing Shiyu followed Lin Xing to visit the Quantum Intelligence Research Institute.
In the elevator, watching the elevator door open and close, Lin Xing said: "Don't press it randomly with your spiritual thoughts..."
In the parking lot, looking at Jing Shiyu spinning in circles in front of the car, Lin Xing asked, "Want to go in and try? I can ask them to send a driver over."
Jing Shiyu, who was sitting in the car, looked at the scenes flying around and said in surprise: "Lin Xing! This is not much more powerful than a carriage!"
In the cafeteria, looking at the hundreds of kinds of meat, pasta, and various side dishes, Jing Shiyu was shocked and said, "Do you eat these every day? Just take them all? Eat them casually?"
Lin Xing nodded and said: "This is my first time to come to the canteen here. After all, it is an agency canteen. The conditions are quite good and it is a buffet."
Potato beef brisket, fish-flavored shredded pork, Kung Pao chicken, sweet and sour pork loin, boiled fish...
In Lin Xing's opinion, it can only be described as ordinary conventional food, but when Jing Shiyu ate it in her mouth and felt the unprecedented seasonings and additives exploding on the tip of her tongue, she felt a sense of the past that had never existed in the mirror world. A sense of happiness that I have never felt before.
For the first time, she felt that eating could be such a happy thing.
While Jing Shiyu was eating and drinking happily, a young man walked up to him, blushed and said, "Hello... hello..."
Lin Xing had seen similar chats several times today. After all, Jing Shiyu's appearance was indeed too easy to attract people's ideas, and most of the ordinary staff at the institute knew nothing about the mirror world.
After skillfully helping Jing Shiyu send the young man away, Lin Xing looked at Jing Shiyu who had emptied another plate and couldn't help but said, "Eat slowly."
Jing Shiyu picked up a small piece of cake and stuffed it into his mouth. The smile on his face became brighter: "This is delicious. I will take a few pieces back for my disciples to eat."
That night, Jing Shiyu floated in the ward and said with emotion: "The secret realm is completely different from what I have seen in the classics before. You guys are really nice here."
Lin Xing said casually: "You can stay a few more days if you like, I'll go back first."
Jing Shiyu sighed: "There are still people waiting for me over there. I've been away for so long, and the situation must have gotten a lot worse."
Lin Xing remembered what the other party said last time and asked: "Isn't the Holy Lady of the Heavenly Will Sect the biggest among the sect? According to what you said last time, is it possible that you are very fierce in internal fighting?"
Jing Shiyu seemed to have thought of something, a look of loneliness appeared on her face, and she said calmly: "Let me tell you a story."
"A long time ago, there were three kittens in the woods. They were small and weak. They could only eat some grass and catch some bugs every day, but how could they survive like this? Just when they were cold and hungry, they almost couldn't survive. At that time, a family adopted them."
"But that family adopted too many cats. The three kittens were bullied by other cats as soon as they entered the house. They were so thin and small that they could only eat leftovers from other cats every day."
"But this is already a very happy life for them. After all, they don't have to be cold, hungry, and afraid like in the wild."
"But the family that adopted the cats didn't keep them in vain. Soon the three kittens were let out to fight with wild dogs outside."
"But the smallest kitten among them is really too small. She is so weak and skinny. She might be bitten to death by a wild dog in one bite."
"So in order to protect the kitten, the two older cats hid her every time and kept her away from the wild dogs. They wanted the kitten to never know what was going on outside and wanted her to Live happily."
"But the wild dogs were too big and too many for them. The two big cats suffered more and more injuries, and their movements became slower and slower. Finally one day... they all died."
"From that day on, only the smallest kitten was left alone."
Jing Shiyu stopped here, as if the story had ended.
She glanced at Lin Xing and said, "Lin Xing, with your talent and temperament, it would be a pity to stay under Zhang Tiande."
"When I get back, I welcome you to join me at any time."
"But Zhang Tiande can't hold on for long. The entire Dongya Mansion can no longer tolerate him. You must seize the time to make a decision."
The next afternoon, the familiar feeling came to Lin Xing's heart again. As the fairy gate opened, Lin Xing and Jing Shiyu stepped into it and came to the mirror world again.
