Gasp! She's a Time Traveler Using Modern Tech to Improve Ancient Life-Chapter 230 - 229: The First Evolution of the Space-Time Gate
After setting the creatures free, Lin Wanwan returned to the small villa and re-assessed the Space-Time Gate in front of her.
At this moment, the Space-Time Gate had undergone obvious changes. Its color had solidified into a grassy green, and the glow had dimmed considerably. It was like a flamboyant peacock turning into a reserved gentleman.
Lin Wanwan recalled that every change of the Space-Time Gate was accompanied by the appearance of rare animals.
Could it be that bringing already functionally extinct flora and fauna into the modern era could change the Space-Time Gate?
But is this change good or bad?
For the environment, it’s definitely a good thing, but for the Space-Time Gate, change also means risk.
With a hint of doubt, Lin Wanwan pushed open the Space-Time Gate and returned to the forests of the Great Tang.
When she walked to the riverbank and found Kun Lun waiting there, an expression of surprise appeared on his face.
"What’s wrong?" Lin Wanwan asked. Having been with Kun Lun for a while, she could sense his emotions, and she could now even understand a few words of Kun Lun’s language, which was somewhat similar to modern Spanish.
"It’s fast." Kun Lun said.
"It’s fast?" Lin Wanwan repeated, suddenly puzzled, "Fast!? Do you mean that your actions are fast?"
She quickly took out the mechanical watch from her money pouch. From the time she left the Great Tang to release the dugongs, sold the extra seafood to Jie Yuting, and returned to the small villa to change clothes and come back to the Great Tang, it had taken four hours in total. But now, on the mechanical watch, only one hour had passed.
If the watch wasn’t broken, then that means the time flow between the two places had started to differ!
Lin Wanwan leaned more towards the latter possibility, very simply because the Space-Time Gate had changed.
A surge of exhilaration rushed into her heart. If the time flow in the modern era is at a rate differing from the Great Tang, she would effectively gain more time. Would her physical functions change due to the alteration of the time flow?
Lin Wanwan couldn’t wait to try it again and immediately instructed Kun Lun to go back, as she wanted to study it closely with closed doors at home!
That night, Lin Wanwan opened the Space-Time Gate at ten o’clock in the evening, Great Tang Time, and traveled through time and space to the modern era, where it was eight in the morning.
In the modern era, she completed her daily social interactions on WeChat, then went out to driving school to learn to drive, studying until eleven in the morning. Then she returned home, went online to check information about law firms, and looked up some legal materials. At noon, she opened the Space-Time Gate again and returned to the Great Tang.
According to the previous time flow, four hours would have passed in the modern era, and the Great Tang should also be about four hours. Normally, it would be two in the morning in the Great Tang at that time.
But in fact, when Lin Wanwan returned to the Great Tang, she took out her mechanical watch to look at the time. It was only an hour since she had left, and it was eleven in the evening in the Great Tang.
Due to this miraculous change, Lin Wanwan felt rather excited with no sign of drowsiness.
To verify her thoughts, Lin Wanwan studied late at night in the Great Tang—mainly looking at the formulas left to her by Old Sun, as well as diagrams of human anatomy and acupuncture points.
Studying was supposed to calm her mind; although the effect was mediocre, the time wasn’t hard to pass.
After four hours of study in the Great Tang, during which it was three in the early morning, Lin Wanwan opened the Space-Time Gate once again and traveled through time and space to the modern era.
At this point, in the modern era, it was one in the afternoon, only an hour since her last departure at noon!
In other words, Lin Wanwan spent forty minutes in the modern era, and only ten minutes elapsed in the Great Tang; while she spent forty minutes in the Great Tang, the scenario reversed, and only ten minutes passed in the modern era.
All these changes depended on where she spent her time.
After repeatedly traveling and timing things overnight, Lin Wanwan finally confirmed the change in the Space-Time Gate.
It was incredibly astonishing, so unfathomable. The time flow between the modern era and the Great Tang, for Lin Wanwan, had become a fourfold disparity.
In the future, the probability of slip-ups while traveling through time and space would become smaller, as she effectively gained a lot more time!
Thinking of this, Lin Wanwan beamed; now there was no need to stay up late every night.
And the people like Lu Shouyue in the modern era wouldn’t have to complain about her mysterious disappearances. In the future, when she spends a full day in the Great Tang, it would have only passed six hours in the modern era.
Staring at the Space-Time Bracelet on her wrist, Lin Wanwan chuckled to herself, as if she could seal time!
On this day, Lin Wanwan was unusually excited.
Though she had not slept last night due to testing these changes, and combined with the time difference of the two time-spaces, she’d been awake longer than an all-nighter, evident by the dark circles under her eyes.
But she wasn’t a bit tired!
At noon, she even held a baking class for the children, distributing flour and yeast, letting everyone knead dough and make bread, shaping it into various little animals, which delighted the children and secretly worried the five women in charge of the children’s meals at midday in the school.
Such a waste of flour!
Seeing this whitish mess on the floor, it’s all food!
Using flour to let kids play, isn’t that a joke? Among the five women, one couldn’t help but grumble a few words, even Qian, the clan leader’s daughter-in-law, who never spoke much, couldn’t help but sigh and shake her head silently.
When the children left the classroom to eat lunch in the cafeteria, the women carefully picked up the flour on the floor, taking it home to feed chickens and ducks would be good, too.
Fortunately, this year, the clan earned a bit by selling steamed buns and shrimp paste, making life slightly easier. If not, it would never be left for poultry to eat; there were many more people willing to pick it up for themselves.
"Ah, Lady Wanwan is great at everything, just not frugal with food," sighed Qian.
"Well, there’s nothing to be done; Lady Wanwan used to live with the Immortals in the mountains, never having experienced the hardships of lacking food and clothing, so naturally she doesn’t understand."
"It’s the fortune of the clan’s children. If it weren’t for Lady Wanwan coming down from the mountain to join the clan, hey, how could this group of children have an education, let alone make bread with white flour here?"
In the end, it turned into a wave of gratitude and praise for Lin Wanwan.
All of this, Lin Wanwan, sitting in front of the oven in her own yard, was naturally unaware of.
Hua Nong hesitated squatting next to Lin Wanwan and softly said, "Madam, why are you unhappy today?"
A slip of Lin Wanwan’s hand which was supporting her chin, prompted her bewildered response, "Why would Hua Nong say that? I’m in a great mood, though."
Hua Nong replied, "At first, Madam was happy, but gradually, you seemed less so, otherwise, the Madam wouldn’t impatiently guard the oven."
Lin Wanwan looked Hua Nong up and down in surprise, "Hua Nong, your perception has improved. Rest assured, your Madam is fine, just had a sudden urge to make something delicious today."
Hua Nong looked at Lin Wanwan, hesitated to speak but said nothing.
Lin Wanwan refrained from saying more and continued staring at the flames, savoring the essence of everyday life.
