Lady Lin’s First-ever Journey to Immortality - Chapter 521

Chapter 521 On the Way to the Zhongdu City

After returning from Green Mountains, Lin Luoran doesn’t always live a leisure life.

First of all, the young people in the family have embarked on the road of personal ability enhancement. As their guider and senior, she can’t stand the situation that they have no weapons in the environment where mutant monsters are proliferating.

She has forged a batch of weapons on the starship earlier. However, at that time, she didn’t know what elements of the Taoist root Han Weiya and others would have. She just made some ordinary goods of Five Elements.

Ma Shuangshuang’s water whip was made when they passed an uninhabited planet. Lin Luoran happened to kill an exotic snake monster of the Water. She then made this whip with its main vertebrae, which made the whip of great quality. Otherwise, it couldn’t catch Hu Ji so easily.

Of course, apart from worrying about juniors, Lin Luoran is also very concerned about the injuries of the souls of departed, the fire phoenix and silver fish in space. She has no elixirs to heal their injuries. Therefore, she can only choose the most stupid way and gives the two monsters stacks of 1000-year Hollow Azurite she brought from Green Mountains.

As for herself, she carves 1000-year Hollow Azurite into a few pieces of jade. She ties it on her dress hem to keep it from being caught in a gust. The main purpose is actually to nourish her ocean of consciousness.

In her free time, Lin Luoran enters the space to organize her belongings. She sees The Great Truths with blue cover on the desk but she can’t open it by all means. Lin Luoran now believes what the man in robe said about his leaving. He really has left.

Lin Luoran has only learned eight golden word figures. She probably can’t continue her learning before seeing the man in robe again. However, she should not be too greedy. As a cultivator of Gathering Vitality, there are many arts of nature and holy spells waiting for her to study!

Lin Luoran lines up the weapons refining materials which she has collected in her interstellar wanderings for several years and the magical restorative dedicated to Hu Ji by the monsters of the Green Mountains world. After several days of thinking, she finally has a clue about what to refine for everyone.

The nine-tailed fox is not good at attacking. Lin Luoran remembers a ball of fluorescent silk sent by Green Mountains monsters. If it is woven into cloth, it will be feasible to make a vestment for Hu Ji.

Of course, she can’t accomplish the task all by herself. Ma Shuangshuang used to learn the ancient method of weaving in order to cure disease. Therefore, she offers to help.

Liu Qingdai also comes to see her. In addition to the reconstruction, she also talks about a group of people from the Alpha Alliance a few days ago.

No one knows how the Earth Federation led by Mr. Pang works. Because of the Dongting incident, the Alpha Alliance didn’t turn against the Earth last time. Instead, it described the incident as a military defense training for the Earth Federation—the result of the training was obvious to all. The Earth Federation also didn’t want to argue. It insisted that if it was a training, then the Earth should be upgraded.

The earth is the Rank One member star of the Alpha Alliance but it only represents a colony star with a nice name. Lin Luoran doesn’t know how much the earth will be upgraded in the Alpha Alliance system because of the hard work of the Earth Federation this time. She doesn’t pay much attention to it.

Subconsciously, she still regards the Alpha Alliance as a hostile force. Whether the Alpha Alliance promotes the Earth Federation or not, it only means a temporary relief for Lin Luoran.

Therefore, Lin Luoran only puts what Liu Qingdai says in mind, but she doesn’t totally pay more attention to it.

On the contrary, when it comes to reconstruction, little by little one goes far. Although she is partial to Huaxia, she also understands that Huaxia alone can only make limited changes without the help of other places.

There are some other gathering places. Besides Dongting, Huaxia also has Lhasa City on the Tibetan Plateau and Zhongdu City which was originally the capital before the New Era.

There is only one mother lode of five elements. The reconstruction should still be carried out centering on Dongting. This is a long-lasting battle. Zhongdu City, Lhasa City, and even the settlements on the Western Euroe and Grand Canyon of East Africa all have to take action.

It seems that she has to find some time to investigate the surrounding environment of other places.

Thinking of Lhasa, Lin Luoran feels moved. Didn’t the family of Ze Yitong live on the grassland before the New Era? Since Lhasa City could be preserved as a habitation, maybe the little herder girl is lucky enough to have some descendants still alive.

It is feasible for Xiaozhi to investigate this matter. The intelligent brain has been staying on the Edward. It feels so boring that it chats with her all day long from a distance. Well… she is not a chatterbot!

After handling the trivial matter at home, Lin Luoran is about to begin refining weapons. She suddenly remembers that in the stone palace that day, Baojia’s Snow Sword was seriously damaged by the fake saintess. Maybe it also has to be refined in the furnace.

Lin Luoran remembers Grade Five “Sword of Bright Snow”. The two flying swords are homologous. This time, Baojia almost ruined the sword to save her. Lin Luoran wants to rehabilitate Sword of Bright Snow by melting it down. If she uses all precious materials, maybe she can upgrade the flying sword.

After meditation, she thinks it is practical. Lin Luoran even chooses the refined weapons materials to be melt into the flying sword before she goes to see Baojia in Chiao’s place.

Unexpectedly, the small yard is empty in just a few days. Not only the nanny is dismissed, the house is also sold.

The scene totally beats up Lin Luoran.

She thinks that after what happened in the Green Mountains, they have been through fire and water together. Her relationship with Baojia must be getting better. What was the problem that made Baojia so impatient that she moved away?

However, after the fake saintess incident, she did notice that Baojia wanted to say something. She didn’t get the chance to ask Baojia about it. Now, here comes the consequence.

Lin Luoran sighs. What kind of a thing this is! No matter if they can be friends later or not, Baojia can make things clear. Why does she avoid her in this way? She feels a little upset for a while. Xiaozhi helps her check it out. It turns out that Baojia took Chiao out of Dongting and they are heading for Zhongdu City now.

Knowing the general direction, Lin Luoran just forgets the matter.

She only wants to let it be. Two days later, there is news from Zhongdu City that their seedling center has some problems. Although Liu Qingdai wants to deal with it by herself, Lin Luoran can’t show no concerns since she knows it.

After hearing that they are going to Zhongdu City, the four young people in the family all eagerly want to go there together with Lin Luoran. Liao is still recovering from his injuries and Dongting can’t be left alone. Hu Ji is sensible to say that he wants to stay here, which is really a rare occasion. Lin Luoran takes Colin with her because he is better at dealing with things.

In order to investigate the environment better, she is not going to fly there. Lin Luoran casts a little art of nature on herself, and then she looks vague and ordinary in the eyes of others. With Liu Qingdai’s help, Lin Luoran and Colin go there as assistants of agronomy experts with some agriculturalists and old researchers in Dongting City.

It can be said that apart from Liu Qingdai, even the Mayor of Dongting doesn’t know that “Mortal Heart Fairy” is among such a group of people.

With the same idea as Lin Luoran, these senior researchers collect soil and water samples on the way to Zhongdu for large-scale replanting plan in the future.

So the team abandons fast airship and chooses a comprehensive small one instead. They head for Zhongdu City at a speed equivalent to that of a long-distance bus before the New Era.

Stopping and going along the way, they have collected some samples. Lin Luoran and Colin also participate in the numbering and archiving. As for the analysis, it is not a thing that “assistants” can handle.

Seeing a group of old men debating vigorously all day for a certain water source data, Lin Luoran sighs with emotion. She quietly adds some good things in their drinking water and food.

These old men are treasures for agriculture and they are the fortune of the Earth Federation. Lin Luoran hopes that they can be as healthy as possible and they can live longer. It is the future generations of the earth that benefit from their longevity.

On this day, they pass the territory of Chang’an before the new era. The Yellow River Basin is approaching. Several water experts are very excited.

The mutant monsters are rampant. Therefore, the opportunity to come out and investigate on the spot like this is too rare for these senior researchers.

Staying in the laboratory to analyze data will never be as genuine as seeing it with their own eyes.

The two rivers have nurtured Huaxia ancestors. The elder is still very interested in whether the Yellow River basin can be purified.

Lin Luoran walks through the hall with two glasses of mixed juice. She is stopped by a senior scholar named Wang.

“Linny, we will be in the Yellow River Basin in a while. Are you interested in accompanying old men down to have a look?”

The two “assistants” suddenly joined the team. Colin knows nothing about agronomy. Lin Luoran has always been insightful because of space and her previous experience. Besides, she is also attentive and diligent. The old professors and scholars on the spacecraft all trust her.

Wang’s invitation is also a temptation. They don’t know if this delicate young girl can really study agriculture with full concentration. After all, although they are protected by a guard, it is still dangerous to walk in the mutant monsters’ territory after they get off the spaceship.

How is it possible that Lin Luoran cares about the danger that Wang worries about?

She can “see” the places they enter one by one on the spacecraft. However, it’s still not as real as being there herself. Lin Luoran naturally agrees to Wang’s suggestion.

After they land, the spacecraft’s security team tries to choose a safe area before a few elderly people wearing protective clothing with compressed oxygen disembark.

The senior scholars have fought for it, but the spacecraft staffs still emphasize that they can’t stay outside for too long, especially near the Yellow River. Compared to mutant monsters on land, the aquatic mutant monsters hiding under the sand of the Yellow River sometimes violently injure people all of a sudden, which is really a big trouble.

As the junior with the lowest qualifications, Lin Luoran can still investigate this place, which makes other assistants so jealous. Colin also doesn’t get the chance. He can only watch Lin Luoran disembarking. Colin silently complains that white-haired old men are as blind as bats.

Colin isn’t worried about Lin Luoran’s safety. He is just frustrated that he has begged for many times, but the old men still refuse to take Colin, a layman, with them.

Guards kill all the mutant monsters at the destination with a low profile as possible. The old men go to the river under protection. Seeing the dirty river water, they feel complicated and unspeakable.

Without the upstream vegetation, the situation of the Yellow River’s rising riverbed is even more serious.

In the past, it was the problem of yellow sand while now it is the water pollution problem of the New Era. It will really be a big project if they want to transform the important water area for farmland in the history of Huaxia.

The old people have a heated discussion and they are unwilling to leave after getting the water sample. The river is calm, but the guards feel something unusually dangerous.

It’s too quiet.

Lin Luoran doesn’t notice anything at first until she accompanies them to the river. She suddenly freezes like being hit by a spell and can’t move.

Under the rolling sand river, she actually feels a pure, deep, and boundless Wakan of the Earth. It is quietly lurking in the middle of the river… How can there be such a powerful mutant monster on the earth?!
