Transmigrated as a Peasant Baby Who is Pampered by All

Chapter 411: Chapter 259: Entering the Space

Occasionally, a breeze swept through, which was something Linger had been instructed by Xiaomi to pretend, and from afar, there were occasional calls of chickens, ducks, and geese.

As they practiced, Xiaomi noticed that practicing swordsmanship in the space was indeed much better than outside, even for her.

Remembering before coming in, she had also specifically instructed Ling’er to watch over Wei Ziang and alert her if anything happened.

Gradually, she put her thoughts aside and concentrated on her practice.

Unconsciously, two hours had passed.

”Master, master,” Ling’er called Xiaomi softly, ”It’s about time, you should take that person out now.”

Xiaomi snapped back to reality and indeed noticed that Wei Ziang’s movements had slowed down as well.

Without saying much, she withdrew her sword and walked over to Wei Ziang, ”Brother, how are you, tired?”

Wei Ziang conveniently stopped his movements, turned to her slowly, and smiled faintly, ”Not bad, Xiaomi, are we going back?”

”Yeah, it’s getting late, let’s leave here first, we can walk around the mountain later.”

Xiaomi supported Wei Ziang and retraced their steps, ”By the way, brother, how do you feel? Any different from before?”

Wei Ziang: ”It’s indeed different, but I can’t quite pinpoint what exactly is different, the only thing for sure is that these two hours today marked progress equivalent to half a month’s usual practice!”

Xiaomi was surprised, ”That impressive, huh?”

Wei Ziang nodded in affirmation.

Xiaomi clicked her tongue, it seems what this swordsmanship requires is indeed Spiritual Energy.

Usually, only a slight trace of Spiritual Energy is present in the food they eat, but now even the air is filled with it, each breath taken is inhaling the energy into the body, naturally it feels different.

Soon, the two returned to the side of the fish pond, Xiaomi reminded Wei Ziang to be more careful, and then they directly left the space.

Reappearing beside the cave, Xiaomi climbed down from the big rock, held the motionless Wei Ziang, removed his blindfold, put it back into the space, and then untied the black cloth strip.

In the long darkness, Wei Ziang instinctively closed his eyes, and only slowly opened them once he adjusted to the daylight.

Immediately, a look of surprise appeared on his face, ”How did we end up here?”

Xiaomi laughed, ”Of course we’re here, but just now we weren’t here.”

She had purposely chosen a place with moist air, far from the village, where few would come at midday in the sweltering heat.

Of course, even if someone approached, there was nothing to fear.

While in the space, Xiaomi could observe the outside situation, and if someone did approach, she could go out first and then relocate Wei Ziang from a different spot.

Wei Ziang looked around but seemed to find nothing, nor did he ask further questions.

On the way down the mountain, Xiaomi asked him, ”Brother, I have to ask you, do you want to continue practicing swordsmanship there, or focus on attending school?”

Wei Ziang was rather surprised, ”Can I go there every day?”

”Of course, but if that’s the case, we need to come up with a good excuse, otherwise Mom and Dad will be angry.”

After all, they can’t outright explain what they’re doing; in the eyes of their parents, they would think they’re skipping classes to go out and play.

Just then, they descended a mountain and arrived at a path leading to another city gate.

Wei Ziang paused his steps, turning to walk in that direction, ”Or, let’s not let Mom and Dad know. From now on, I’ll wait for you here every day, how about that?”

Xiaomi quickly followed, ”Take this path? But that won’t do either, Jiang Wei is in the same academy as you, if you skip class, Jiang Wei will definitely find out!”

”I’ll handle Jiang Wei; Xiaomi, I’ll be waiting for you here tomorrow. After lunch, just rest and head up the mountain.”

Clearly, he was more interested in martial arts training than school.

Xiaomi hesitated for a moment but then nodded in agreement, ”Alright, let’s walk this way first to see where the path up the mountain is.”

Although she had been through it once, Wei Ziang had not, so they had to go through it again.

Off they went without delay, fortunately not far, and upon seeing that piece of deserted graveyard, Xiaomi feigned fear, constantly holding onto Wei Ziang’s sleeve.

After Wei Ziang comforted her, saying there was nothing to fear, Xiaomi felt a bit embarrassed, but luckily the ’fear’ was short-lived. Once they got used to it, the two walked through the graveyard boldly.

With the route up and down the mountain confirmed, the day was drawing late, so they wasted no more time and headed straight back home.
