Chapter 43 – 43 Space

43 Space

Zhou Xiaoli did not tell Zhang Lan that Zhou Yu might not wake up.

With Zhang Lan’s current physical condition, if she knew about this, something bad might happen.

“Mother, is Sis back?”

Zhou Xiaoyu woke up, and the first thing she asked was about Zhou Xiaoli.

Then, when she saw Zhou Xiaoli feeding Zhou Yu medicine, she pouted and started to tear up.

“Sis, Mother, Father, bad guy, hit bad guy…”

Zhou Xiaoyu sobbed and could not even speak clearly.

“It’s all right. It’s all right. Don’t be afraid. Don’t be afraid. The bad guys have run away.”

Zhou Xiaoli pulled the little fellow into her arms and comforted her in a soft voice. Her heart ached for her.

The child was only four years old. After experiencing what happened this afternoon, she must have been terrified. She prayed that she would not have any psychological trauma.

At this moment, the commotion woke Zhou Junjun up as well.

When he woke up, he did not cry anymore, but his eyes were red as he sat on the bed in a daze.

“Brother Jun, don’t be afraid. The bad guy is no longer around.”

Looking at Zhou Junjun, who was in a daze, Zhou Xiaoli was worried that this little guy had lost his soul from fear. She could not help but speak in a warm and calm manner.

Seeing the two children like this, Zhang Lan’s face was filled with worry and heartache as well.

However, Zhou Junjun sniffed and raised his head. He said loudly, “Sis, I’m not afraid! I’m the little man in our family. I want to protect Sis, Younger Sister, and Mother!”

As he spoke, he patted his chest.

Upon hearing Zhou Junjun’s words, Zhou Xiaoyu immediately crawled out of Zhou Xiaoli’s arms. Wiping her tears, she patted her chest and said, “I, I, I’m not afraid. I, too, will protect Sis and Mother!”

She had cried so hard just now that she was hiccuping. However, she spoke with confidence even before her hiccup had subsided.

Looking at the two little ones, Zhou Xiaoli’s eyes softened.

Zhang Lan coughed as she watched this scene. Her tears fell again and she hurriedly turned around to wipe them away.

At this moment, Zhou Xiaoyu exclaimed.

“S-Sis, your nose is bleeding…”

Zhou Xiaoli also felt that her snot seemed to be flowing out uncontrollably. She subconsciously reached out to touch it and saw that her hand was covered in blood.

“It’s a nosebleed.” Zhang Lan immediately stood up. “Quick, bring Sis outside to pat her forehead with cold water.”

Zhou Xiaoli pinched her nose and ran outside.

The two little fellows also ran out. One ran to carry the basin, while the other scooped water from the vat.

“Sis, wash up quickly.”

The nosebleed came suddenly and violently, as if it could not be stopped.

As Zhou Xiaoli washed, she applied cold water to the bridge of her nose to stop the bleeding.

Soon, the water in the basin was dyed red with blood.

“Li’er, how is it? Block your nostrils with cotton.”

Zhang Lan came out of the room with cotton in her hand.

“Mother, it’s fine. There’s no need to do that. I’ll just wash up.”

It was undesirable to stop nosebleeds with cotton.

This may cause the nasal mucous membrane to become rough, or even scratch the nasal mucous membrane, causing secondary damage which would worsen the nosebleed.

Just as Zhou Xiaoli applied cold water to the bridge of her nose, there was a sudden thud.

Something slipped from her arms and fell into the basin.

Looking over, Zhou Xiaoli could not help but freeze.

The blood-stained water had become clear, and there was a stone lying at the bottom of the basin.

The stone that she had bought from the old lady today.

“Ah, Sis, look!”

Obviously, Zhou Xiaoyu and Zhou Junjun also noticed it and pointed at the basin in surprise.

“What’s wrong?” Zhang Lan also walked over.

“Mother, there’s no blood!” Zhou Xiaoyu and Zhou Junjun pointed at the basin in surprise.

Zhang Lan looked over and saw a basin of clear water with a stone at the bottom. She could not help but ask, “Why did you two children pour the stone into the basin for your sister?”

“No, Mother.” Zhou Xiaoli was still confused about what had just happened. Why did the blood in the water suddenly disappear?

Could it be related to this stone?

As she thought about it, Zhou Xiaoli reached out and took out the stone.

As expected, the originally black stone seemed to have become lighter in color to gray.

Moreover, the stone was very hot.

Just as she was thinking about it, the blood from her nose slid down her hand that was pinching her nose, and dripped onto the stone.

With a sizzling sound, the drop of blood disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye. The originally gray stone immediately turned blood-red.

The two little fellows were so shocked that their mouths dropped wide open.

Zhang Lan’s eyes widened in shock too.

However, what surprised them was yet to come.

The few of them felt dizzy. In a flash, the scene before them changed.

The Zhou family’s small courtyard that they were originally in was no longer there. What greeted their eyes was a brand new farm courtyard.

“W-where is this?”

Zhang Lan looked around in horror.

Zhou Xiaoyu grabbed Zhou Xiaoli’s hand in fear. Zhou Junjun was also so afraid that he subconsciously wanted to hold Zhou Xiaoli too.

But when he thought about how his father was sick and he was the only man in the family, he had to be the one to support the family!

The little fellow stilled his face and puffed out his chest, looking as though he was ready to protect his family.

Compared to their fear, Zhou Xiaoli was excited!

Alternate space!

This was an alternate space!

Who could have known that this unremarkable black stone was such a good thing.

“Mother, don’t be afraid. This should be called alternate space. It’s a good thing.”

Seeing that Zhang Lan was still confused, Zhou Xiaoli explained to her.

Zhang Lan was still not very clear, but she understood something. “You mean this is something from the gods? Things from the real world can be put in here?”

Seeing Zhou Xiaoli nod, Zhang Lan was overjoyed. Although she didn’t quite understand why they had to put things into this space, couldn’t they just put them at home too?

However, she still felt extremely happy.

She couldn’t help but hold Zhou Xiaoli’s face. “Just like I have said, my daughter is a lucky star and is favored by the heavens!”

The two little fellows were infected by her joyous mood and were no longer so afraid. They began to observe their surroundings curiously.

“Let’s take a look at this space first,” Zhou Xiaoli suggested.

Then, the four of them strolled around the space.

At present, other than the small courtyard and the surrounding few acres of land, the rest of the space was white.

The three of them pushed open the door and entered. The small courtyard was not very big. It had seven rooms, two livestock sheds, and a pigsty. There were two acres of fields behind the small courtyard.

Beside the field was a clear spring.

The spring water emitted some spiritual energy.

Thinking of something, Zhou Xiaoli walked over and took a sip of the spring water. It was refreshing and sweet.

Instantly, she felt energized and relaxed.

Zhou Xiaoli smiled. As expected, this spring water had the effect of strengthening the body.

Zhou Xiaoli quickly called the three of them over and asked them to take a sip of water from the Spiritual Spring. Thereafter, she started thinking on how to get out of the space.

However, just as she thought of this, the four of them returned home again.

Her nose was no longer bleeding, and the stone in her hand had disappeared. In its place was a red mole on her palm.
