132 The Little Fairy’s Concealment
After Gu Qingming returned to her room, she realized that Kong Xingfan was sitting by the spirit pool unhappily.
She flashed into the space and asked curiously, “Xiao Ling, what’s wrong?”
The spatial fairy’s eyes were red, and its voice was a little choked as it said, “I… I just miss my father, mother, and siblings!”
At this point, it paused for a moment. “When I saw so many people in Master’s family today, I thought about how our family was also so lively before I left the fairy world. There were fathers and mothers who loved us, and brothers and sisters who were united.”
“Boohoo, I’ve been away for 3,000 years. I wonder how they’re doing now. Have they forgotten me? Have they missed me? But even if they’ve forgotten me and haven’t missed me, I still miss them. Boohoo…”
The spatial fairy was sad.
In their world, who had suffered worse? When it went out to travel, it encountered immortals and had no choice but to start its escape journey.
In the end, this escape lasted for three thousand years.
Gu Qingming felt the little fairy’s sadness.
She comforted it. “Don’t be sad. I’ll try my best to let you go home!”
Her slender and fair hand gently caressed its white wings.
“Yes, yes. Thank you, Master!” The spatial fairy nodded as it cried. “Thank you, Master!”
Gu Qingming was about to say something when the Kong Xingfan asked, “Master, when are you going to start planting vegetables?”
Gu Qingming, who still knew nothing about farming, asked in confusion, “Did I just plant the seeds here?”
“Of course not!” The spatial fairy immediately said anxiously, “If it’s that simple, you don’t have to work. Just sprinkle the seeds and my space will definitely be filled very quickly.”
Gu Qingming had the same thought at first.
“But in fact, that’s not the case!” the spatial fairy said. “We also need to plow the ground, weed, and water here!”
“Huh?” Gu Qingming asked in confusion. “But didn’t you say that you only need a thought?”
“It’s fine as long as it’s just a thought,” the spatial fairy said. “But there’s a limit to this kind of thought. If you exceed the limit, you’ll have sequelae, such as a headache, weakness, and so on.”
“Wait.” Gu Qingming stopped the spatial fairy and asked, “Isn’t mental strength unlimited? There’s actually a limit?”
The spatial fairy pointed her two fingers at each other and said with a slightly soft and guilty expression, “Well, there is a limit to your thoughts when planting. When I communicate with Master, there won’t be such a limit!”
Gu Qingming rubbed her forehead and said helplessly, “Then why didn’t you make it clear earlier?”
The spatial fairy also said a little aggrievedly, “At that time, you were very resistant to the contract you signed with me. If I told you that planting these things had a certain limitation on your mind, you would probably be even more put off, right?”
It was just playing a little trick through omission.
It looked up at Gu Qingming nervously and asked carefully, “Master, are… are you angry?”
Gu Qingming looked at the little fairy’s careful and nervous expression and sighed softly. “Forget it! It’s just…”
Her expression was very serious as she said, “I hope you won’t hide anything from me in the future. Don’t worry, since I’ve promised you, I’ll naturally do it. In the future, you don’t have to be so fearful! You and I are already tied together. We’ll share honor and disgrace, live and die together!”
The spatial fairy’s eyes were filled with tears of gratitude and guilt as it said, “Yes, Master. I was wrong. I won’t do it again!”
Gu Qingming could not blame it for playing such a trick.
After all, at that time, she really did not want to be tied to the little fairy, even if she was the master and he was the servant.
Now, she owed the little fairy two favors.
One was the grace of her rebirth.
The other was the ability to search for people.
People often said that a drop of water should be repaid with a fountain!
Since that was the case, she could not be an ungrateful person.
Gu Qingming thought for a moment and said, “I’m pregnant now. If I plant it with my mind, will my fetus be affected?”
The spatial fairy did not dare to hide anything anymore. It shook its head and said, “Not with your mind. However, after using your mind too much, the aftereffects will affect the fetus. Of course, Master, don’t worry. The fetus will still grow healthily.”
Gu Qingming frowned and asked, “Then what do you mean by the aftereffects affecting the fetus? For example, what will happen to the child if I have a headache or weak limbs?”
“Yes, actually, the fetus will be hungry!” The spatial fairy said.
“Hungry?” Gu Qingming was a little surprised.
“Yes, it will be hungry!” The spatial fairy said. “It’s not that your aftereffects can’t be resolved. It’s just that when your head hurts and your limbs are weak, you will eat to replenish the energy in your body. Of course, you can only be energized by eating something grown in the space!”
Gu Qingming finally understood.
The so-called overuse of willpower meant that her energy powering that willpower would be exhausted, so it needed to be replenished.
And this energy should be the spiritual energy that the little fairy had once mentioned.
Thinking of this, Gu Qingming’s face darkened.
Such a simple explanation was complicated by Kong Xingfan’s explanation.
The spatial fairy looked at Gu Qingming’s expression and panicked. It did not know what it had said wrong, but its expression seemed a little afraid and nervous.
“Sigh.” Gu Qingming sighed softly. “Little Kong, you don’t have be so afraid. It’s not like I would eat you. You make me look like the evil landlord of the old society.”
“Pfft!” The spatial fairy couldn’t help but laugh when it heard Gu Qingming’s words. Then, it let go and said with a smile, “I’m just afraid that you’ll be angry.”
“If you know that I’ll be angry, don’t say half of what you want to say!” Gu Qingming pretended to be angry and said, “Don’t do this in the future. Otherwise, I’ll really be angry.”
“No… No!” The spatial fairy defended itself. “I just didn’t hear it for a while.”
“Alright, I’ll start to do the planting in my space.” Gu Qingming touched its head and promised, “I’ll try to send you home as soon as possible! If I can’t do it, I’ll tell my descendants to continue!”
Perhaps she was a little irresponsible to her children when she said this, but she owed the fairy a huge favor and could not repay it. She could only leave it to her descendants.
The spatial fairy’s eyes were filled with small tears. It was very touched as it said, “Master, there’s no need to be like this. I… I…”
Gu Qingming chuckled and said, “Don’t you want to see your father, mother, and siblings sooner?”
“Yes!” The spatial fairy nodded.
“Isn’t this it!” Gu Qingming smiled and said, “If I can’t send you home, my descendants will definitely be able to send you home one day. Believe me!”
“Yes, I believe in Master!”
