Chapter 139 - 139 Flow of Time
139 Flow of Time
Gu Qingming followed the fairy’s instructions and planted the pumpkin seeds with her mind.
“Plant!”
The pumpkin seeds in her hand flew out one by one like a fairy scattering flowers.
After a while, the seeds were planted in the corners designated by the little fairy.
Gu Qingming brought in more than ten seeds.
When she bought pumpkin seeds, she found out that pumpkin seeds were sold by grain.
However, if she bought more than a catty of pumpkin seeds at once and lost a few, it would not be noticeable.
The remaining pumpkin seeds were just as his grandmother had said. These pumpkin seeds were full and would definitely smell good when stir-fried.
However, if the quality of this pumpkin was really good, she could consider planting more. At that time, she would sell it wholesale.
Gu Qingming asked, “Little Kong, if this pumpkin seed is sown, when will it germinate?”
Xiao Kong said, “The flow of time in the space is different from how it is in the outside world.”
Gu Qingming raised her eyebrows. “Oh, what do you mean?”
Little Kong explained, “The flow of time in the space is faster. A day in the outside world is twelve days in this space. A month in the outside world is a year in the space. The pumpkin growth cycle is usually 110 to 120 days. In other words, in ten days in the outside world, the pumpkin in the space will have ripened.”
Gu Qingming widened her eyes in disbelief. “Time passes so quickly in the space?”
Then, she suddenly thought of a very serious problem. She said, “If I stay in the space, will I age faster?”
If that was really the case, she would definitely avoid entering the space if she could help it.
Who would be willing to pay the price of their age to enter the realm? No woman would want to age so quickly.
“Ah?” Little Kong did not react for a moment. He said, “This… This can’t be, right?”
Whether it was in the past or now, no human had entered its space.
It really did not know how much of an impact it would have on humans if they stayed in space.
Gu Qingming looked at it suspiciously and asked, “So, you don’t know either?”
Little Kong frowned and fell into deep thought. He said, “I heard from my father that time flows quickly in space. That’s only for plants and animals that are growing. After maturity, animals no longer undergo cell division and don’t need to consume spiritual power to grow. Therefore, the flow of time has nothing to do with them.”
It looked up at its master and continued, “Although Master belongs to the category of animals, you’ve already lived for a long time, so no matter how long you stay in the space, you won’t be affected.”
“What about the child in my stomach?” Gu Qingming asked very seriously. “The child in my stomach is still in the growth period. Will it be affected by the flow of time in the space?”
If it really had an effect, she would definitely choose to plant in the space after giving birth.
To Gu Qingming, the child was important to her; it was more important than her life.
Therefore, if she could choose, she would definitely consider the child first.
“No!” Little Kong Kong said, “The fetus has already fused with you. In addition, the spiritual spring water has cleansed your body. You are essentially one with the space. The flow of time does not impact you.”
Gu Qingming looked at Xiao Kong suspiciously again. “One moment, you’ll say that I’ve already passed my growth period and that it doesn’t affect me. The next moment, you’ll say that I’m one with space and that it doesn’t affect me. Which is the real explanation?”
“It’s all true!” Little Kong said honestly. “You signed a contract with me. You are the master, and I am the servant. My space is your space. In other words, you can control everything in the space, including the flow of time.
“The current flow of time is at 1:12. This is my original time flow. However, when the number of spatial plants increases and the energy increases, this flow of time can be adjusted like a clock. No matter what time you want, you can adjust it.
“Of course, adjusting the flow of time in space requires a considerable ability. According to Master’s current ability, you can only accept the original flow of time!”
“Oh, is that so?” Gu Qingming nodded and said, “Then I don’t have any problems for the time being.”
As long as the flow of time in the space did not affect the passage of time and the normal development of the fetus in her stomach, she would ignore it for the time being.
“Then when can we harvest the pumpkins?” Gu Qingming asked. “The pumpkin cycle outside is about 110 to 120 days, so this space is about ten days. You can see ripe pumpkins in ten days. Is that so, Little Kong?”
“Yes, that’s it!” Little Kong nodded. “No matter what you plant in the future, the growth cycle won’t be shortened. However, as long as Master walks around the outside world and returns to the space, it will be different.”
Gu Qingming said, “I can’t stay in the space every day and watch them sprout or grow. In the future, I’ll have to ask Little Kong to take care of the things in this space!”
Little Kong said excitedly, “Master, this is my duty. It’s my duty to take care of them.”
“Oh, right, will there be pests? Or disease?” Gu Qingming asked another important question.
Most importantly, if these things were sick, would she have to give them medicine to catch bugs?
How could she have so much time to stay in this space?
Little Kong covered his mouth and said with a smile, “Master, don’t worry! With me, Little Kong, taking care of them, how can they get sick? Besides, the spiritual spring water can cure all illnesses and detoxify all poisons. It’s impossible for these bugs and germs to appear.”
“Oh, I see!” Gu Qingming nodded. “Then I’m relieved!”
Just as she was about to leave the space, Gu Qingming thought of something else.
She said, “Little Kong, that Liu Tiancheng ran away. I suspect that he has accomplices!”
The big case that happened in her previous life was not something that could be executed by just four or five people.
The group reportedly numbered more than 10 people.
Now that Lei Wenjun and the other two had been captured, and Liu Tiancheng had escaped, they did not know what would happen to his other accomplices.
She felt uneasy about not being able to nab Liu Tiancheng. She had to track down Liu Tiancheng as soon as possible.
Gu Qingming continued, “Although I asked Cheng Ba and the others to ask about Liu Tiancheng’s connections in Pingyang County, these people are hooligans after all. They’re different from Liu Tiancheng’s circle in Pingyang County. I probably won’t be able to get any useful information.”
Little Kong asked in confusion, “Then why didn’t you call the police, Master? Instead, you asked those hooligans to look for Liu Tiancheng?”
Gu Qingming said, “Hehe, but we can’t underestimate the strength of the hooligans. Perhaps they might bring us useful news?”
“So, Master, are you giving Cheng Ba and the others a chance to redeem themselves?” Little Kong said in confusion. “But, Master, their thoughts are already crooked. They’re addicted to gambling. Why are you giving them a chance? Since they’re involved in gambling, they should be captured so that they won’t harm ordinary people!”
Collecting protection fees every day was also harming ordinary people!
Gu Qingming shook her head and said, “Xiao Kong, you don’t understand. We sent someone to follow them. We have to capture the scene of the gambling. I already know where this casino is. However, the casino has an extraordinary relationship with Liu Tiancheng. Keeping them might give us a breakthrough in locating Liu Tiancheng.”
The spatial fairy shook her head and said, “Your human world is really too complicated. I still don’t understand!”
“Forget it if you don’t understand!” Gu Qingming touched its little head and asked with a smile, “I just want to ask you if you can find Liu Tiancheng.”
The spatial fairy shook its head and said, “I’ve never seen Liu Tiancheng before, so I naturally don’t know his aura. Without his aura, I can’t find him!”
“What if there’s something Liu Tiancheng used?” Gu Qingming asked curiously.
The spatial fairy’s face darkened and she said speechlessly, “Master, I’m not a puppy. I can’t use my sense of smell to trace someone!”
Gu Qingming was a little disappointed.
Gu Qingming said worriedly, ” I’m always a little worried, afraid that he’ll take revenge. It doesn’t matter if he takes revenge on me, but I’m afraid that he’ll take revenge on my family!”
