Gasp! She's a Time Traveler Using Modern Tech to Improve Ancient Life Chapter 641 - 639: Heart-to-Heart Conversation
The two of them sat quietly on the large stone, gazing at the night sky above the mountains and forests.
After a long while, Lin Wanwan, who hadn’t heard Xiao Chong speak, couldn’t help herself and asked, "Cousin, do you have a lot of questions you want to ask ?"
Xiao Chong chuckled heartily, "Cousin, I’ve said before, if you’re willing to tell , I’ll listen. If not, I won’t ask."
Having been seen firsthand by Xiao Chong, Lin Wanwan found it difficult to continue pretending ignorance. She touched the Space-Ti Bracelet, which had partially repaired itself at the gap, and said gently, "I co from 1,400 years later."
Xiao Chong, hearing this, did not show much emotional fluctuation. He already knew that Lin Wanwan’s background was extraordinary. Whatever she said now, he would not be surprised.
What could be more peculiar than making sothing out of nothing?
"What kind of world is the world 1,400 years in the future?"
A mont later, Xiao Chong’s deep voice ca.
Lin Wanwan thought for a mont and said, "It’s a world where peace reigns across the four seas, everyone is equal, there are no Gate Valves, no war, and no starving."
"No Gate Valves... So in the future, the royal and noble families no longer rule the world?"
This mber of the Gate Valve was indeed sensitive to such matters. Lin Wanwan thought he would first express awe at the peace across the four seas!
Lin Wanwan teased, "Yes, that’s right. A thousand four hundred years later, there are no aristocratic families or royal kin. The people are the masters of the nation!"
Xiao Chong was montarily silent, deeply shocked, but he didn’t show it on his face, and he spoke less after thinking for a long ti.
Lin Wanwan was quite surprised that he didn’t bombard her with questions. She turned her head to look at Xiao Chong’s jade-sculpted face in the firelight, feeling a bit clueless.
If she were Xiao Chong, encountering such an event, she would definitely have countless questions because it concerns the future! Was he really not curious?
Lin Wanwan indicated that she couldn’t quite understand Xiao Chong. Indeed, people in official circles have deep thoughts!
After a while, Xiao Chong suddenly smiled and asked, "For how long did the Li Tang world thrive? Is there any record in the future?"
Lin Wanwan hesitated for a mont before Xiao Chong suddenly interrupted her words.
"Never mind, I shouldn’t ask, and cousin, you shouldn’t tell."
After pausing he added, "Cousin, when did you return from Chang’an to Mao County?"
Lin Wanwan felt a mischievous intent and blinked her eyes, saying, "I flew back, and I have to fly back when the sun rises."
As expected, upon hearing this, Xiao Chong couldn’t help but turn his head to look at her, and Lin Wanwan t his star-like gaze with a playful smile.
Xiao Chong’s expression remained ordinary, but his gaze fixed on Lin Wanwan couldn’t move away.
The girl in front of him, whose bare feet and arms were previously exposed, was now wrapped in his plain robe, revealing only an elfin-like head with hair like ink that draped over her shoulders, like undulating mountains.
It wasn’t the wind or the banner that moved, but his heart that moved.
Seeing that Xiao Chong didn’t ask how she flew back, Lin Wanwan had to voluntarily tell him, "Cousin, do you know? In the future world, it only takes an hour by plane from Mao County to Chang’an."
Xiao Chong showed curiosity, "A plane? What is that? Does the Great Tang have a chance to make one?"
"The Great Tang? Don’t even think about it," Lin Wanwan said with a smug face, "It’s difficult to explain in one sentence; airplanes belong to future technology. In general, the future world is ten thousand tis more convenient than now, unimaginable for the people of the Great Tang."
"Is that so? I’m really tempted by what you’re saying, cousin. Would you allow to go to the future with you once?"
Lin Wanwan regretfully said, "If possible, I wouldn’t mind taking you to the modern era, cousin, to have a look. Unfortunately, it’s not possible, as the Dao of Heaven doesn’t permit it. Previously, I couldn’t even take little Qingyu away from the Great Tang."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Chong naturally felt regret, but he didn’t dwell on the matter, only saying, "That’s really a pity."
In her heart, Lin Wanwan thought, even though I can’t take you to the modern era, I can show you modern high-tech.
But the words that reached her mouth were held back.
Even though Xiao Chong saw her secret of ti travel, without her saying anything, perhaps he couldn’t imagine what future technology could an for the Great Tang.
She couldn’t reveal everything, no matter how much she trusted Xiao Chong, she couldn’t test human nature.
So she changed the topic and asked, "Cousin, what ti is it now?"
Looking at the night sky, Xiao Chong replied, "It’s almost the hour of the ox."
"Oh, cousin, actually, my sudden appearance here in Mao County at midnight was just an accident. As I said, I really must leave before dawn and return to Chang’an, or it will be terrible."
"Oh, what’s the matter?" In the information-underdeveloped Great Tang, Xiao Chong naturally didn’t know that Lin Wanwan was still in a temple in Chang’an the day before.
Lin Wanwan did not answer, instead recalling another matter: "By the way, cousin, I’ve now beco so ’Heart Lamp Saintess’ of Daxingshan Temple. Was that arranged by you?"
Xiao Chong denied with a smile, "Being chosen as the Heart Lamp Saintess ans you’re destined to be with Buddha, cousin. Matters of religion are beyond the reach of soone like Xiao."
Lin Wanwan couldn’t believe it! Clearly, Monk Asan almost said it outright, and yet he was still playing dumb!
"Anyway, thank you, cousin."
Lin Wanwan sighed, unconsciously touching the bracelet on her wrist, thinking gloomily, what if she still can’t open the Space-Ti Gate after dawn to fly back to the Ancient City? What should she do!
If she suddenly disappeared in the ditation room of Daxingshan Temple, it would be a big deal!
Reputation would be secondary, but if monks mistook her for a demon and wanted to burn or kill her, that would be miserable.
Moreover, the chance is quite high since it’s a case of a mysterious disappearance in a temple’s closed room!
Therefore, Lin Wanwan could only hope the Space-Ti Bracelet could work and repair itself as soon as possible before dawn, so she can rush back to Chang’an.
The Space-Ti Gate’s feature is that it won’t randomly refresh on the sa land within one or two months and will still appear at the location where she last left, minimizing the risk of exposure.
This ans that within one or two months, as long as she can rush back near Daxingshan Temple in the Ancient City—like the small courtyard she rented, the Space-Ti Gate she summons will still send her to the ditation room where she left the Great Tang last ti.
However, Lin Wanwan didn’t worry too much about this matter for long. She’s always been open-minded; if so things have already happened and can’t be changed by human power, she can only take one step at a ti.
After gaining financial freedom and having a golden finger, she beca quite bold, and very few things in this world could scare her anymore.
If she really can’t make it back to participate in the Buddhist event at Daxingshan Temple in Chang’an, she would think of other ways.
Solutions are always more than difficulties; there’s nothing that can’t be solved with a golden finger, and if that’s not enough, add so financial power.
On such an embarrassing night, eting Xiao Chong and chatting with him made the ti not difficult to pass.
That night, it was primarily Lin Wanwan talking and Xiao Chong listening.
She didn’t tell Xiao Chong about the Industrial Revolution or future technology; such things have too much interest involved, and it’s best to keep one’s mouth shut.
She mainly talked about life’s gossip, marriage customs, parent-child family relations, and things closely related to the people like freedom and equality.
Through Lin Wanwan’s stories, Xiao Chong ca to understand so things.
