I Got Rich in Period Fiction-Chapter 613 - 594: The Mysterious Space_2

Especially Mr. Wu, he didn’t like him, but he didn’t hate him either.

Qiao Qingyu took the paper bag, watched Wu Hong drive the jeep away at high speed, and turned around only to see He Xiuyu standing not far away.

Qiao Qingyu stamped her foot, grabbed her things, and ran towards him, saying as she approached, "It’s quite cold today."

"If you knew it was cold, why didn’t you bring the person in to talk?" He Xiuyu said with displeasure as he warmed her hands.

"We didn’t talk much; he came and left in a hurry," explained Qiao Qingyu.

After returning home, Qiao Qingyu didn’t explain the situation to He Xiuyu in detail right away because it was not convenient.

He Xiuyu didn’t ask. When they were alone, Qiao Qingyu quietly told He Xiuyu all about the matter Wu Hong had discussed with her.

He Xiuyu’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, and after a few breaths, he stood up, closed the door of the room, and said in a low voice, "Let’s go into the space."

This time, they entered the periphery of the Space Device’s laboratory.

The place where they always appeared never changed; one could say it was as though they were standing outside a courtyard, with their house behind them, but surrounded by walls with locked gates, and they stood outside the wall.

Furthermore, the wall here was different from those around a solitary courtyard: to the north lay the end of the Space Device, and the same was true on the east and west sides. The ground beneath them was formed from a vast accumulation of Energy Stones.

Wooden items could be brought in, so not far away was a laboratory without electricity, but it was always daytime, although no sun could be seen, nor blue sky or white clouds—just another space that transcended the world of today.

Another point to mention is that they could bring their cellphones in here, but using them to make or receive calls was impossible in this place.

The two stood still, looking around left and right.

There was nothing different from usual.

Thinking, Qiao Qingyu said, "I thought back to the time when the elder of the Zhang Family disappeared, at that time, we were both in the laboratory."

The two exchanged glances, and He Xiuyu pondered, "That is to say, the Energy Stones in these two places have still produced some kind of connection unknown to us at present. Perhaps at that moment, the energy wave generated by the Energy Stones caused some spatial matter to change. It’s like a radio wave linking two places, and then they heard us talking..."

Even He Xiuyu spoke with an uncertain tone in his voice.

Because even Wu Hong could not guarantee 100% at this moment that the voices of a man and a woman they heard belonged to He Xiuyu and Qiao Qingyu.

Now, the hypothesis He Xiuyu proposed actually made some sense, and Qiao Qingyu’s gaze suddenly shifted towards the east.

Naturally, He Xiuyu also directed his gaze towards that place, and in the next second, his eyebrows twitched, "Stay here, I’m going to check it out."

Afterwards, He Xiuyu strode towards the direction they both had just seen.

Qiao Qingyu didn’t insist, and she went back to the laboratory again, revisited the scene at the time, then stepped out of the laboratory again to look at He Xiuyu in the distance.

He stood at a spot that seemed to have a crack.

Qiao Qingyu asked him, "Did you see anything?"

He Xiuyu turned his head and waved her off.

After that, he remained standing in the distance, seemingly researching something.

At this moment, the two of them still did not know what kind of scene was on the other side of the spot where He Xiuyu stood.

If one were to look down from the highest place, one would see that the Space Device was constructed in a tic-tac-toe grid pattern, with the center box being the current laboratory of He Xiuyu and Qiao Qingyu.

The eastern grid was another space, no different from this one, except there was no laboratory.

The surrounding walls, made of an unknown substance, looked like fog, but upon closer examination, one would realize your hand could not penetrate it; the walls were very hard, high, and smooth, making climbing impossible.

The ground was still covered in a large amount of Energy Stones, no different from inside the center box.

However, this place was not enclosed, having walls on only three sides, with an exit at the forefront.

The area covered by the Energy Stones was vast, nearly 1000 square meters, and in the middle, at this time, there was actually a person crouching.

With a dagger in hand, he was digging out Energy Stones.
