Chapter 6 (2/2)

When thinking about this sentence, Xie Tao felt inside his pant’s pocket, and the milk candy he had fed to the Muka cub was still inside.

This was very interesting. He did succeed in bringing the candy to the other world and he did feed it to the Muka cub. However when he returned to his original world, the milk candy was still in his pocket.

He felt his shirt pocket. The spar that the mermaid cub gave him was not there, it had not been brought back to his world.

If marking the other world as A, Xie Tao came to some conclusions.

Rule 1: He seemed to be able to bring things from this world to world A, but not vice versa.

Rule 2: The things that he brought to world A would still continue to exist in the original world even if they were consumed.

Finding out these things was a big deal, however he still felt a bit frustrated. There must be more supplementary rules that he didn’t know.

Xie Tao turned towards his house.

His theories needed to be tested, but before that he went back to his room in order to wash up and get all grass off of him.

Done showering, he blowed dried his hair and walked into his room.

Feeling refreshed, he gave a small sigh of content, he then took a book and held it in his arms as he lied down, the milk candy was still in is pocket and he was ready to test his theories. He closed his eyes.

Theoretically he shouldn’t have been able to fall asleep any time soon, after all, he had just slept and felt energetic, however just as the thought of wanting to sleep crossed his mind, Xie Tao’s conscious faded.

When Xie Tao opened his eyes again, he was met with the sight of an old ceiling, the white color was different from the one in his home as it had yellowed a bit from many years passage. He looked around. Four plain wall, a mattress and a rough quilt. In addition to the quilt covering his body, Xie Tao clearly felt that he still had a weight on his body.

Opening the quilt, Xie Tao saw the book he was sleeping with in the original world. Very good, the rule was confirmed.

Xie Tao patted the outside of his pant’s pocket, this time he could not feel the milk candy. He was not too surprised and soon noted down a supplementary rule.

Rule 3: The same item cannot be repeatedly carried to world A.

Dragging his fingers across the book in his hand, Xie Tao realized that Xia Zuo, the golden light ball floating around him, was actually quite powerful.

This book, strictly speaking, was not what he brought from his world. If it was brought, then the items in his world, like for example the milk candy, should have disappeared, but it hadn’t. Therefore a copy, an exact copy, must have been materialize whenever he travel here.

From the perspective of materialism, this couldn’t be explained. Xie Tao can only partially comprehend it and he felt that this world must somehow believe that this book exists and therefor it appeared.

The reason why the world thought that this book existed was probably because the “link” Xie Tao had created, this “link” somehow deceived the rules of the world, which was undoubtedly an unimaginable power ability.

Xie Tao couldn’t help but to think about the fact that even though the other party had such a powerful ability, he still couldn’t save the world from being destroyed in the future and asked for his help.

But what could he do?

To save the world, such a high level mission, if the other side as a boss-level figure with high combat power couldn’t do it, how could he, a low level beginner do it…

“Ah, stop it.” Xie Tao raised his hand and patted his cheek, clearing his mind of all unnecessary thoughts.

The world will be destroyed in the future, as for how long until it happens and for what reason, Xie Tao did not know, it could be in a thousand years, it would be tomorrow.

But compared to thinking about this kind of thing that was impossible to answer, Xie Tao felt that he should find a clear meaningful goal that was more reachable.

After all, he had a great golden finger at his disposal, the ability to bring the things on earth to this world, it really was an amazing cheat!

Since there was such an ability, as long as he understood the trade of this world, he could probably make money to improve all aspects of their Cub Raising Association!

He would be able to buy better rations for the cubs in the club, buy softer and more comfortable beds, maybe they could even get the club’s facade fixed up or at least change the rusty gate to make the place look more respectable from the outside.

This was much more meaningful than stressing about “saving the world”, something he clearly couldn’t do, at least not at the moment.

Thinking out a plan, Xie Tao got up and left the room.

He had to look for Xia Qi in order to inquire about the trade situation of this planet and see how to use his golden finger to earn himself a bucket of gold.

__________

The author has something to say:

Daisy, Xie Tao is very prepared to start making money =3=

Translator’s note:

Lu Yuan has a nickname for him (see footnote) do you want me to continue using the sarcastic meaning or should I write “Xie Lánlán” In the text or should I modify the nickname to something like “Xie Tata” or “Xie Taotao” or “Xie Tatao”?

[1] – Lu Yuan is addressing him with his nickname which is “Xie Lánlán”, “Lán” means lazy in Chinese and “Xie” can mean the following: To thank, to apologize, to wither (plants) or to decline. So whenever Yu Luan says this sentence it can also hold a sarcastic meaning.
