Lin Qiao was looking for the turtle in her space. It couldn't be in the water, so she looked around and figured that it was hiding among the grasses.
She closed her eyes to listen to the sounds in her space carefully, then sniffed at the air. After that, she walked to the grass.
She hadn't been taking care of the strawberry plants and vegetables in her space for a while. It was Junjun who had been doing the job.
While walking toward the strawberry filed, she suddenly began wondering how those baby mice had been. She guessed that those mice would often come to eat her strawberries. That gray rabbit loved the strawberries as well.
Lin Qiao knew that Junjun would come to this area frequently to drive away the few mice and the rabbit. She kept those small animals in her space as stored food, but now, they were living here quite happily.
That rabbit had somehow become Wu Yueling's friend, so Lin Qiao decided not to eat it. As for the few mice, she planned to wait for them to grow up and then eat them.
Following the scent of the turtle, Lin Qiao gently walked into the grasses.
She walked toward the turtle with light footsteps, then found that it had moved to the edge between the grassland and the white fog.
Was the turtle trying to get out of her space?
Lin Qiao silently walked over, looking at the turtle which had been circling by the white fog, seemingly trying to find an exit.
The turtle sensed her immediately. As it turned back and saw Lin Qiao standing behind it, it immediately hid its head and limbs in its shell.
Lin Qiao looked at the turtle which was already freaked out by the vine plant in her lake and felt like laughing. She instantly squatted and turned the turtle over.
As she was thinking about how to deal with this turtle and the few outside, she suddenly sensed that something was summoning her to the center of the lake. It was similar to when she was summoned down to the lake for the first time.
But this time, her mind continued to be clear.
She stood up and walked toward the lake. She didn't notice that as she turned to leave, the white fog behind her was moving backward slowly, exposing some tall and dark shadows.
Those were like the shadows of trees that people might see in dark nights.
As the white fog faded, some trees really appeared. These trees were all dark in color, with luxuriant foliage, about ten meters in height. The white fog on this side kept moving backward, and so did it on the other side, by the side of the lake.
The small space that Junjun and the little boy stayed in didn't disappear, but began moving backward.
While playing with Tongtong in the small space, Junjun suddenly sensed a light above her head. Then, she raised her head to find that she was out of the small space. However, she didn't remember coming outside.
After that, she looked around and found something even stranger. Not only her, but the bed and other things were all out here as well.
She turned back and realized that the small space was moving itself away.
She didn't move her feet, and suddenly felt that this space had become much larger than before.
She then carefully looked at the small space and found that it was still moving!
With surprise, she glanced at the surrounding white fog. She saw that the wall of the white fog was expanding, and also noticed those newly appeared trees by the edge of the grassland.
'What… What's going on? Did Lin Qiao do something to her space?' She wondered.
She turned to Lin Qiao, who was by the lakeside, and saw that the latter was taking off her clothes. So, she hurriedly covered the little boy's eyes.
'Don't look!'
At that moment, Lin Qiao had walked to the lakeside and taken off her jacket. Then, she turned back to glance at Junjun. Only after finding that the latter had covered Tongtong's eyes did she take off all her clothes without worry.
Afterward, Lin Qiao walked into the lake naked. Once she got into the water, something quickly coiled around her feet to gently drag her down.
She lowered her head and found that it was a vine.
Being dragged by the vine, she walked slowly into the lake. When the water reached her chest, she dove into the water and moved toward the bottom of the lake.
Once she was submerged into the water, she found that the energy down in the lake was stronger than before by many times; the glowing green energy had become much darker in color.
She was a little surprised. Looking at the dark green energy, she wondered if it were the kernel which had strengthened it.
Before she arrived at the lake center, a few more vines reached to her and coiled around her waist and limbs. Then, the vines dragged her quickly down to the lake bottom. During that process, more vines had reached to her and coiled around her.
By the time her feet touched the lake bottom, she was already wrapped into a green cocoon. She sensed that familiar numb and itchy feeling from her entire body again.
'Can you remove the scar on my face? I hope my face can be fixed this time! Please fix my face first!'
While enduring that awful headache, Lin Qiao murmured in her heart. She couldn't tell for sure if the vine plant was able to sense her thoughts or not.
When she started to sense waves of dull pain from her brain, she took a deep breath to make herself ready.
As she had expected, the dull pain soon exploded in her brain.
'It hurts!' She gritted her teeth and closed her eyes, hands clenched into fists and whole body tightened. The vines were as strong as always. They wrapped her tightly without letting her move even an inch.
The pain in her head grew greater and greater. She clenched her teeth so tightly that she even felt that her teeth were going to be crushed. But still, she didn't open her mouth to scream.
'Deep breath! Deep breath!'
At that moment, her brain received a message, and she automatically took in a deep breath.
Suddenly, she felt a large amount of energy flushing into her brain through her nose. However, that energy didn't ease her pain, but caused something to burst.
The head-blowing pain that she had been suffering was upgraded, turning into a horribly hot and swelling feeling in her head. She felt that her head wasn't exploding anymore, and instead, it was forced to expand by something. She now felt that her head was larger than before by a few times.
That painful feeling lingered in her head. Her mind was clear, but she would rather pass out and then wake up to find that it was over.
However, once her mind became a little bit blur, she was woken up by that immense pain.
