Chapter 444 - Leisurely Days Are Over (2/2)
Perhaps her leisurely days during the interstellar journey should come to an end.
…
The stars.h.i.+p is gradually moving towards the normal orbit. Xiaozhi is working hard for it.
Among the plants collected from the planet where Taoist Danling’s body was found, the edible are singled out and cultivated in the planted area. One will feel less worried if he/she has stored enough food. Colin Weir can’t agree more. In fact, if Lin Luoran’s s.p.a.ce is fully reclaimed to grow rice, there will be no worry even if she has to feed tens of thousands of people on the stars.h.i.+p. However, it’s not a good thing to always rely on her s.p.a.ce.
She used to think that she could provide the Lin family with daily necessities and a good environment for personal ability. She made sure they enjoyed the best food, clothing and housing.
However, when a disaster befell her family, she was not with them, neither was her s.p.a.ce. At the end of the day, they could only count on themselves, right?
Everyone including the fox knows that Lin Luoran can bring them fresh food and superb spirit herbs at any time, but they don’t know how much more she can offer. She is always willing to share, though. She will take out many exotic things from time to time. n.o.body is so imprudent as to ask where these come from.
Inspired by Lin Luoran, everyone feels that agriculture should be paid much attention to during the long interstellar travel. In particular, they are keen on external planted areas which will ensure their food supplies.
As for Han Weiya, she is working hard to digest the knowledge imparted by Taoist Danling. The spirit herbs she can find now are only the green seedlings in the cyan little fox’s medicine field. She cares about whether they grow taller every day. Looking at her serious look, Lin Luoran can’t help but think of Yuan Ye, her chief apprentice who loves making elixirs. If Yuan Ye meets Han Weiya, they must have a lot to discuss.
How about Ma Shuangshuang? Well, she has amazing talent. Since there’s no shortage of Reiki in the environment, it’s expected that Ma Shuangshuang will soon absorb Training Qi into her body and enter the early period of Training Qi.
As for Ma Yiming, he is a slow learner who hasn’t gained a sense of Qi so far.
It seems that Lin Luoran overestimates the difference between the Taoist root of four elements and that of three elements. Actually, Ma Yiming lags far behind Yuan Ye and Zeng Tian in cultivation.
Unless… She uses that Bone Marrow Cleansing Elixir to help him.
She has to think it twice. It is not easy to shape the Taoist root, so the matter cannot be decided on so rashly.
As regards Colin Weir, he gradually becomes acquainted with everyone. After all, there are only a few intelligent lives on the stars.h.i.+p. However, the cyan little fox still finds faults with the handsome guy. Never mind. Colin Weir should be proud, for he’s now the first “alien” secretly recognized by Lin Luoran.
Of course, poor Colin doesn’t know what Lin Luoran thinks of him.
Lin Luoran doesn’t explicitly show her appreciation for anyone, including Colin Weir. Since Colin Weir doesn’t understand Huaxia’s reserved manner, he feels kind of hurt.
Lin Luoran has stayed in the room by herself for long. She said that she wanted to “refine weapons”.
It can take a lifetime for people to study the all-encompa.s.sing civilization of cultivation on the earth. Even if they do so, what they gain may be only a drop in the ocean.
The siblings of the Ma family discuss their thoughts on personal ability from time to time, while Han Weiya follows the cyan little fox to learn about spirit herbs and how to make elixirs. How Colin Weir envies his companions!
However, what he can do is to envy them.
Only the Huaxia people on the earth can engage in cultivation. It’s known to every member of the Alpha Alliance.
However, general knowledge may sometimes prove wrong.
For example, Lin Luoran refines weapons with monsters one day after she emerges from her closed-door training. A novel practice, isn’t it? As White Fairy says, some general knowledge is not always correct. Whether one succeeds in refining weapons lies in his/her understanding of what may work. The same can be said when one makes elixirs.
Some precious materials have been used but produced nothing, while some ordinary materials may have unique effects when their use is driven by inspiration.
Xiaozhi estimates that they would encounter an asteroid belt after a jump, but they don’t. Nevertheless, the jump causes something unusual.
Because of it, Lin Luoran even has to terminate her closed-door training in advance.
She has no choice, since the “Alpha-Edward” stars.h.i.+p has the first “road accident” during the interstellar travel.
What it b.u.mps into is not an asteroid, but a bigger stars.h.i.+p. Yes. After drifting for half a year, Lin Luoran and her companions have finally found traces of another civilization among stars and planets.
