A genius girl with her own space

Chapter 333 Light Gate

The day passed unnoticed. Qiqi hadn't mastered the two talismans. Zhou Jingze and the four children had made great progress. They had all received guidance from Uncle Hu.

Today was Qiqi and Zhou Jingze's last day in the forest. They were leaving the secret realm tomorrow. They had no one with them, so they let the white cat out and went in without searching the woods. The white cat ran incredibly fast, and they followed closely.

After running for a few miles, the trees thinned out and they came upon a low thicket of weeds so dense it was impossible to find a foothold. The white cat also stopped, unable to run. The weeds were so dense it couldn't get through. It meowed at Qiqi.

"You said there are herbs here, in here." Qiqi asked, and the white cat nodded.

Qiqi picked it up and flew into the air, looking at the weeds as she flew. Zhou Jingze followed behind, not saying a word, but carefully searching the weeds below.

"Look, the purple flowers are blooming upside down like a bell. Is that Fritillaria?" Zhou Jingze said.

Qiqi also saw a large field of Fritillaria. The humid climate and abundant sunshine here were perfect for their growth. Qiqi only had a few in her space, and she bought them when she needed them. This time, she could transplant some to her space, eliminating the need for additional purchases.

Looking at the stems and leaves of the Fritillaria, it must have been growing here for many years. The rotten leaves here have become its nutrients, and the deep, sandy soil is the natural environment for the growth of Fritillaria.

"Brother Jingze, this is wild Fritillaria, that's great. I'm rich again, and I was just looking for it!" Qiqi said happily.

Zhou Jingze took out a shovel and dug the bulbs of Fritillaria.

Zhou Jingze first used his sword to clear away the weeds, which would make digging easier. Qiqi also put the white cat into the space and let it rest.

They dug together. Each of them dug a plant. Qiqi unearthed a lot of small Fritillaria, many white seeds. Qiqi held them up to show Zhou Jingze. They chatted as they dug, and soon they had dug half a basket. They were only halfway there.

As Qiqi dug, she gathered the thriving Fritillaria plants into her space and planted them in the herb garden. She planted dozens of them. She knew they were perennial wild herbs, rare and precious.

As they dug, Kong Ling and the others wanted to come out to help. Qi Qi declined, not knowing where this secret realm led and fearing they would be in danger. Aunt Long also wanted to help, but she declined. She didn't want to expose them for the time being. Pegasus and the others didn't know the existence of the space, let alone that it was inhabited by people and animals.

To protect their safety, the space cannot be exposed for the time being. Qiqi doesn't trust everyone. Although she is kind to everyone, she cannot let others use her kindness as a tool.

Qiqi thought that in addition to cherishing her family, she would also have to cherish two types of people: those who accompanied her without any purpose, and those who cared about her without any exchange of interests. She would keep her love and smiles for those who cherished her.

They finished digging quickly, and Qiqi collected many of the seedlings into her space. She didn't know when she would enter the secret realm again, and perhaps she wouldn't come in again.

Qiqi put all the mother-of-pearl into the space and asked Kong Ling to store them. Zhou Jingze put the rest of the items into his storage ring so he could take them out when needed.

They flew deeper into the forest again. This time, without letting the white cat run around, Qiqi held it in her arms and let it observe where the medicinal herbs were.

They walked for dozens of miles but didn't see the herbs they needed. There were many common herbs that they didn't pick.

They needed rare and precious medicinal herbs. They came to a high mountain, and a white cat meowed. They knew a white cat wouldn't meow for no reason. The white cat raised its head and looked at the top of the mountain.

Qiqi and Zhou Jingze, holding the white cat, flew up. When they were almost at the top of the mountain, they saw a lot of Dendrobium officinale. They had encountered wild ones again.

Qiqi felt like a lucky star, with opportunities everywhere she went. They landed on a large protruding rock, and Qiqi took the white cat into her space.

Zhou Jingze took out a backpack and two small sickles. Each person carried a backpack and a sickle. Carefully find a place to rest and pick dendrobiums.

"Qiqi, you have to be careful. Check if there are any snakes under the Dendrobium. Be careful." Zhou Jingze said.

"Brother Jingze, you also have to be careful. There are a lot of gravel here, so step firmly when you land." Qiqi reminded.

Qiqi actually saw small snakes under the dendrobium. They might be guarding the dendrobium or perhaps nibbling on it. Qiqi sprinkled a handful of sleeping pills to knock them unconscious, so she didn't harm them.

Soon they had finished picking all the wild dendrobiums. They flew to the top of the mountain. The view was stunning. The forest below was unobstructed, and from there they could see their home, a small outline.

They looked around, and just ahead of where they had come from, they saw a multicolored light, but not so dazzling that they couldn't see it without going up. The light spun, and they were fascinated by the swirling light. They stood there and watched, observing its changes.

After a while, the spinning light formed a vortex, trying to suck in anything that approached it. The vortex gradually grew larger, large enough to fit a person inside. Slowly, it spun back into a single point of light.

The rotating light spot gradually grew larger, forming a light gate. Something inside seemed to be attracting them. Qiqi walked forward, and Zhou Jingze's state of mind was also shaken. "Qiqi, close your eyes, don't move, don't listen."

Zhou Jingze went up and covered Qiqi's eyes. He closed his own eyes as well. They were almost drawn into the light gate. He was terrified that he had reacted in time. If it were too late, they would have already entered the light gate. Was this the place Uncle Hu had said they shouldn't have come to? This led to another world. What was there? Could they come back?

They didn't dare to gamble, because their families and relatives in the human world were waiting for them to return safely.

Qiqi also came to her senses. What happened to me? How did I end up here at the rotating light gate? Zhou Jingze also calmed down from his panic. He quickly took Qiqi away from the rotating light, lest it turn into a light gate and lure them in again.

Zhou Jingze told Qiqi what had happened. She was shocked to know that she had almost been sucked into the light gate. If she had gone in, Zhou Jingze would have followed her in. No one knew whether she would come back or not.

"Brother Jingze, I'm sorry for scaring you. I shouldn't have forgotten Uncle Hu's warning. If I encounter such a situation again, I will be more vigilant."
