"Stop." Lin Yue felt a cool sensation from being licked.

"You think you can know what I'm thinking just because I don't say anything?"

The giant snake nodded.

"Your body is way too big. Can you shrink a bit? You're so big, I don't dare take you out. Something could easily happen. What if someone takes a picture of us? We'd be finished."

Lin Yue was unaware that she had already been photographed and that the photos had gone viral.

No sooner had she finished thinking than the giant snake began to shrink before her eyes, until it was less than half a meter long, and coiled itself around her wrist. It even stretched out its head, staring at her.

"Master, how about this?"

Lin Yue felt a coolness on her wrist, and to be honest, she was still a little uncomfortable.

"Um, what's your name? I don't even know your name!" Lin Yue controlled herself from throwing it away.

"However, I don't have a name yet."

It stared at Lin Yue with its snake-like eyes, and Lin Yue felt that there seemed to be a hint of expectation in those eyes.

Lin Yue took out her phone, turned on the camera, and took a picture of the snake. A description of the snake immediately appeared.

"The white-striped krait, also known as the hemp snake. Hehe, how about I call you Pockmarked?"

Ma Zi had no idea what was good or bad; whatever its master said, it did, and immediately nodded. It even rubbed against Lin Yue's arm.

"Thank you, Master. From now on, I'll be called Ma Zi."

After getting Ma Zi, Lin Yue suddenly had a new idea. Her real body couldn't enter the space, but Ma Zi could. So, could she ask Ma Zi to help her plant things in the space?

That way, I'd have those spiritual fruits again—things that prolong life.

"Ma Zi, after you enter the space, will you experience that kind of...?"

Lin Yue spent a long time explaining to Ma Zi, just wanting to ask if it could see those buttons and plant those things with one click.

"No, Master, I don't feel anything."

"Do you know how to farm?"

Lin Yue looked at the snake's body with some worry. Asking a snake to grow crops in her spatial dimension seemed like asking too much. Besides, even if it could grow crops, could it also water them?

If you plant it but can't water it with spiritual spring water, it seems like it's not very useful.

"What is farming?" Ma Zi scratched the tip of his tail on his snake head, indicating that he didn't understand.

"Never mind, I'll teach you slowly later."

Lin Yue felt that there was no meat left in her space. She thought about her bottomless stomach. However, compared to buying meat at the supermarket, wild boar meat seemed better. But was it illegal to hunt in the mountains? Would she be sentenced if she got caught?

This is too difficult. Regular meat makes you hungry quickly, and wild meat is hard to come by.

Lin Yue went to the backyard to check on the vegetables she had planted before. These had all been fertilized with space fertilizer, and if they grew up, they should be enough to feed her.

They're growing quite fast; they've all sprouted in just a few days, and some of the greens are already over ten centimeters tall, so they should be ready to eat.

Lin Yue's face lit up with joy. Rather than running into the mountains to catch wild animals, the main reason was that almost any wild animal was now a protected species.

I think I'll just go to the market and buy some vegetables from the backyard; that should make it better.

It's 5 PM now. I'll go to the city and call Zhu Yali to have dinner together.

"Ma Zi, you stay home and watch the house, mainly making sure to keep an eye on the vegetables in my yard and the flowers in my garden. Don't let anything else get in and damage them."

"Yes, Master."

Ma Zi immediately slipped off Lin Yue's wrist and darted into Lin Yue's vegetable garden.

Lin Yue drove to find Zhu Yali. Lin Yue hadn't even glanced at her phone.

We went to Zhu Yali's rented apartment according to the address. After picking her up and Xiao Rui, the two adults and one child went to the supermarket.

Hello, Aunt Lin.

"Hello, Rui Rui. What would you like to eat? Auntie will treat you to dinner today."

Lin Yue talked to the children while driving.

"Yueyue, let me treat you. You've helped me so much, this time it's my treat."

Zhu Yali wanted to repay Lin Yue's kindness, but didn't know how. The bottle of medicine she had received earlier had sold for 100,000 yuan.

But she's currently facing financial difficulties and can't find a good job. She only graduated from junior high school.

"I'm treating Xiaorui to dinner; you're just incidental. You can treat her next time."

"Oh, by the way, I came across two viral videos from our area today. Have you seen them? They're hilarious. One of them is called 'Auntie Who Can't Hold Back'."

Zhu Yali showed her phone to Lin Yue. The street background in the video looked vaguely familiar, and upon closer inspection of the person's background, it looked even more familiar.

"I feel like I've seen this person somewhere before."

"Huh? That can't be right. Even though they're from our area, it can't be that much of a coincidence."

Zhu Yali had been to Lin Yue's house once, but the streets in the countryside all looked pretty much the same. How could she possibly remember them all?

"It's the street in our village."

Lin Yue drove all the way to the supermarket, and after parking the car, the three of them got out. Only then did she take out her phone.

A video was posted in the village group chat—the one Zhu Yali had just shown her. A group of people were tagging Chen Xiuyun in the comments.

"Hey Xiuyun, are you sick or something? You should go to the hospital to get checked out." (Accompanied by a laughing-crying emoji)

"Yes, Aunt Xiuyun, we're adults now, not children. We can't just pee and poop anywhere anymore."

"Hahaha..." Lin Yue laughed when she saw the chat history.

"Stop laughing at my mom. She slipped and fell while taking a shower and is now in the hospital."

She thought of the unlucky charm she had thrown at Chen Xiuyun. It was quite effective.

"What are you laughing at?"

Seeing Lin Yue laughing while looking at her phone, Zhu Yali immediately leaned over to take a look.

"Oh, it really is someone from your village. This person is in such a bad state. They're even in the hospital."

"She's pathetic; I think she deserves it."

Lin Yue then told Zhu Yali about Chen Xiuyun's previous visit to her home and her forced sex with her nephew.

"Huh? What business is it of hers whether you get married or not? She's such a busybody."

"You don't know, after she left my house, she said that if it weren't for the fact that I'm rich and decent-looking, she wouldn't have dated me. She also said that if I, a woman, don't get married soon, no one will want me and I won't be able to have children. No one will take care of me when I'm old."

Lin Yue scoffed. She was at least at the fifth level of Qi Refining. Even if Chen Xiuyun's grandson died, she wouldn't die.

She can't enter the space now, but Ma Zi can. She's confident that when she gets back, she can teach Ma Zi how to farm. Then she can have Ma Zi plant more medicinal herbs in the space, especially those with high spiritual potential, so that she can continue cultivating in the future and strive to reach the Foundation Establishment stage.

The three of them went to eat first.

"Mom, Aunt Lin, I want to eat that!"

Xiao Rui, held in Lin Yue's arms, pointed to a Pizza Hut.

"Okay, let's eat this then."

After the three of them had eaten and drunk their fill, Lin Yue went to the supermarket to buy various kinds of meat. Zhu Yali's eyes widened at the sight of it all.
