Chapter 604: Imperial Examination
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
[To put it simply, it’s an array core. You can place it in your spatial pocket and your spatial pocket will have endless Myriad Spirit Holy Water, and it won’t cause diarrhea. The effect won’t be immediate, but it has the component of improving physique, including intelligence.]
The Myriad Spirit Water and Myriad Spirit Sacred Water would improve a person’s physique to the best extent. It was no longer easy to tire out.
If an ordinary person could remain energetic and be full of energy with just a little rest every day, it would be very easy for this person to succeed.
Just like the men from the w.a.n.g Family, they were not fools. They had all inherited Old Madam w.a.n.g and Old man w.a.n.g’s intelligence. If not for Old Madam w.a.n.g wanting them to hide their strength and nurture them to be diligent, they would have long become very successful.
With the Myriad Spirit Water, the sleepy factors in their minds were removed, and their concentration was higher. Coupled with the fact that they were willing to learn well, the advantages of their good genes naturally appeared.
Otherwise, with their former talent, it would be a dream for them to pa.s.s the county level imperial exam and imperial provincial examination in a short period of time.
[By the way, although it’s called a spring, it can turn your s.p.a.ce into a sea, the kind of sea that you really can’t see the end of. The Myriad Spirit Soil will become beach soil and have more effects.]
It sounded very tempting. If an adult was here, they would definitely be attracted by Meatball’s explanation.
But this is All Yu.
“Can we put it in Nanhe too?”
[?]
Ah Yu began to speak. “Nanhe is a huge river. Its origin is in the mountain range behind Fuji Temple. It’s not very far from our Hu Family Village. Moreover, it flows through seven counties and twelve cities. If we place the spring—”
[Stop, stop! Do you know the consequences of letting the spring into Nanhe?]
“Will all the river water become Myriad Spirit Holy Water?” Ah Yu blinked. “Then all of us can drink very delicious water.”
[It’s not that simple.]
[Kid, didn’t you notice? The effect of the Myriad Spirit Water is actually very limited. When you take it out for others to use, it can’t be used as a miracle medicine. It can only help others maintain a healthy body.]
Ah Yu did not understand. “Huh?”
However, hadn’t her Myriad Spirit Water treated illnesses before?
[To be precise, the Myriad Spirit Water treats injuries, not illnesses. Moreover, it recovers the functions of the body. Otherwise, how did you get your recovery fluid and nutrient fluid? It’s because the Myriad Spirit Water can’t completely cover everything, so they’re used as supplementary rewards.]
[Also, the Myriad Spirit Water is from your spatial pocket. Not only can it maintain your health and restore your mental strength, but it can also increase your intelligence. You learn everything very quickly, and because you’re interested, you’ve learned many things. Actually, according to my observation, in your world, if ordinary people want to learn something well, they have to rely on time and talent. Not a single thing can be missing.]
[Other people who drink your water have more side effects. Firstly, they have to be people who don’t have any ill feelings towards you. Secondly, their improvement is limited. After drinking it to a certain extent, their physique won’t increase anymore.]
[With the spring source, this disadvantage can indeed be resolved. You can set it so that anyone can drink this water. Drinking it can also increase their physique and intelligence. Moreover, you can use this to control the hearts of people. For example, you can train your subordinates and let them drink the Myriad Spirit Water that tests their loyalty. It’s better than any poison.]
Ah Yu’s eyes widened. “Elf, don’t you think that in this case, we’re all very similar to the villains in the stories?”
[…I’m just giving you an a.n.a.logy. When you grow up a little more, you’ll be able to study many uses yourself.]
It was also a new guardian. It had learned many theories from reading books every day and took things for granted.
However, no matter what, it was still a child of the Origin s.p.a.ce. Its thinking had long surpa.s.sed the people in these ordinary worlds.
For example, it did not care if the ward it was protecting was a good person or a bad person at all.
With the plot shield, even the Origin s.p.a.ce could not punish them with their power. It can only allow the world to develop freely and Ah Yu to use her strength freely.
“Then if i don’t put in the spring source, will my Myriad Spirit Water change?”
[With me around, it won’t.] Moreover, it would continue to research and let Ah Yu have higher-level things.
“Then if I place the spring source in Nanhe, will it be dug up by others?”
[Others can’t dig it away, only you can touch it.]
“Will that become ordinary water?”
[It’s much better than ordinary water. It’s a little worse than your Myriad Spirit Water, but drinking too much will only have benefits and no disadvantages.]
“Then I—”
Meatbail broke down a little. It felt that Ah Yu sincerely wanted to contribute her things.
How capable was she?
She was already an 11-year-old child. Could she be more selfish?!
“Why are you thinking of giving your things to others?! Can you take care of yourself!” Meatbail emphasized. “You don’t know anything. If not for me, you wouldn’t even—”
You can’t protect these things. You can’t even protect your life. A trashy System will be enough to kill you!
You’re stupid!
“Elf.” All Yu suddenly smiled. “I know.”
[?]
“I don’t intend to put it in the Nanhe River. I want to build a village in the middle of Nanhe Town, Hu Family Village, and the prefecture capital. Then, I’ll open a super-big academy for women. I’ll dig a huge river in the academy. A pond or a lake will do,” All Yu said. “Then, when my Big Brother Ah You becomes the top scholar, he’ll come here to become an official. When my brother becomes a general, I’ll invite people to camp here. I also have to learn a lot of abilities and very good martial arts. At that time, I’ll put the spring in. What do you think?”
This was something All Yu had thought about for a long time. In the past, she had wanted to pour her Myriad Spirit Water into the river, but if she poured it in, it would quickly be diluted.
The nutrient fluid was very precious. It was something that the Elf had to spend a lot of effort to make. Although it could be maintained for a longer time, she could not bear to waste the Elf’s effort.
The w.a.n.g Family Steamed Bun Shop was no longer opening new shops, but she did not want to give them any more nutrient fluids. At this scale, they had to go to the well of the bun shop in Nanhe Town every half a year to get new water. That well was now the secret recipe of the bun shop.
The spring source was a good thing. Ah Yu knew that she couldn’t think of anything long-term now. At most, she could only plan until here.
She had to wait for her Big Brothers to grow up and support her.
She also had to grow up and become a very, very powerful person. It would be best if she was so powerful that she was not even afraid of the Emperor.
She would not be afraid of getting into trouble because of her wealth!
[!] Meatbail was really shocked this time.
When did Ah Yu have such thoughts?!
Before it could ask in detail, Emperor Minghua had already drafted a decree, and the Empress and Empress Dowager had also given many rewards to All Yu and Qin Huai.
Ah Yu was too busy looking at the rewards and put the matter of the spring aside.
After Meatbail set up the Plot Amendment Shield, it threw the spring source into the merit pool.
In any case, Ah Yu wouldn’t take it out to use now. It would plant it in the spatial pocket first.
[When the child was young, it wished that she could grow up fast. Now that the child has grown up a little, it still felt that it’s better when she was young.] It was easier to coax her then.
Meatbail looked at the spatial pocket filled with fruits and vegetables and a large flower field and sighed softly.
After the two of them went out, Old man w.a.n.g had just built up his previous connections when he saw the two brats return with a large pile of rewards. They even said that they were rewarded by the Emperor.
Old man w.a.n.g’s face was calm, but his heart was in turmoil.
All of this was a reward from the Emperor?!
That stingy poor man actually knew how to reward people?!
When he heard that Ah Yu had obtained n.o.ble t.i.tles for the family, Old man w.a.n.g was depressed.
His wife actually had an official t.i.tle. But it wasn’t earned by him.
Oh, his old wife could have a n.o.ble t.i.tle. What about him?
At this moment, the old Duke and Madam of the Duke Yong Manor were looking forward to it.
“Didn’t they say that she has already left the palace? She should be here by now, right?” The sky had already turned dark for an unknown period of time! Not long after, the old butler ran back to the residence, panting. He shouted, “Old Master, he’s back!”
The d.u.c.h.ess stood up. “He’s back? Where is he?”
“He’s returned… to the w.a.n.g Estate!” The butler panted.
The d.u.c.h.ess’s eyes widened. “w.a.n.g Estate? Which w.a.n.g Estate? King Xiaoyao’s Estate? Or the Duke Ning’s Estate? Or the w.a.n.g Estate of Zong Qing?”
“None of them.” The butler finally finished panting and said, “It’s the w.a.n.g Family. He just moved into the w.a.n.g Family in Wanning City. It’s the Young Master’s fiancee’s house!”
“Young Master sent someone to say that he’s going to take the Imperial Examination in a few days. To avoid being distracted, he won’t be returning for the time being. He’ll return after the exam to see what his fiancee thinks.”
“Young Master also said not to rush him or miss him. He won’t insist on marriage for the time being.”
A ridiculous expression appeared on Duke Yong’s face.. “For the time being?”
