Chapter 8 - Chapter 8 Renting a House (2/2)
Upon opening the courtyard gate, he saw a small tree in the middle of the yard, with a circular stone table underneath. Inside, there was a room made from green bricks and tiles, and a kitchen.
Perhaps it was because no one had lived there, but the courtyard was somewhat cluttered, with leaves and branches everywhere, even blanketing the stone tables.
“Creak…”
Lin Jing pushed open the door, and a musty stench hit him, mixed with dust visible to the naked eye.
“Cough…cough, cough…”
Lin Jing stepped back and fanned the air with his hand.
“The previous owner of this house must have been incredibly slovenly,”
Lin Jing complained.
However, with the sun about to set and darkness approaching, if he didn’t clean up now, he’d have to sleep in the courtyard.
Lin Jing sighed and began to clean up.
He was busy until well into the night.
After cleaning up, the house was essentially empty, and now it truly was no place to live.
He would have to wait until tomorrow to purchase the necessities for life.
“Enter System Space.”
As Lin Jing’s words fell, darkness abruptly dissipated, replaced by blinding sunlight that made it hard for him even to keep his eyes open.
“It would be good if I could adjust the weather and time here.”
Lin Jing thought, then he proceeded forward.
Ahead lay the Spirit Field Lin Jing had planted, which he checked and found would mature in one more day; yet when he had looked yesterday, there were still three days left.
In System Space, time flowed at twice the rate of the outside world.
Exactly one day had passed since yesterday, so it seemed the harvest would be ready by tomorrow noon.
“It’s perfect that Senior Han gave me a Storage Bag, once the Spirit Rice matures, I can directly pack it into the Storage Bag to sell; this will make things much more convenient.”
“First, let’s see how large the space in that Storage Bag is to properly prepare.”
Lin Jing took out the Storage Bag, input Spiritual Power into it to open it, and then sent his Divine Sense inside.
Immediately after, Lin Jing was stunned.
Five hundred.
There were fully five hundred Spirit Stones.
“I didn’t expect Senior Han to give me so much.”
Looking at the pile of Spirit Stones, Lin Jing breathed heavily, as it was his first time seeing so many Spirit Stones.
And that wasn’t all; there were also several talismans next to the Spirit Stones.
Lin Jing sent his Divine Sense over.
Fireball Talisman, Cleansing Talisman, Godspeed Talisman, Invisibility Talisman…
Several kinds of talisman, adding up to over twenty.
And the last two crimson talismans, which bore the words ‘Five Thunder Talisman’.
The Five Thunder Technique was a spell that only a Foundation Establishment Cultivator could cultivate.
And these Five Thunder Talismans were equivalent to the full-force strike of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.
This was something that could save his life at a critical moment.
Lin Jing was overwhelmed with emotions, not expecting that such precious items would be given to him by Senior Han.
He made a mental note of Senior Han’s kindness.
And upon further investigation, Lin Jing found the Storage Bag to be quite large, a full ten cubic meters, more than enough to fit all ten acres of his Spirit Rice.
Lin Jing estimated that just this Storage Bag alone was worth a lot.
After being moved, Lin Jing focused his mind, ready to start cultivating.
The Spiritual Energy was rich within the System Space, Lin Jing sat down cross-legged, and it didn’t take long for him to enter a state of cultivation…
……
On the second day, Lin Jing left early to purchase some necessities for life, and after returning, he also took the opportunity to clean up the courtyard again.
By the time he was done, it was already afternoon.
Looking at the completely refreshed courtyard, Lin Jing smiled contentedly, now it really looked like a home.
After tidying up the house, Lin Jing had another task to do: the Spirit Rice in the System Space was ready for harvest.
Next, he planned to look around for an appropriate merchant to sell the Spirit Rice to.
