CHAPTER 19: CHAPTER 19, WHAT I THOUGHT WAS USELESS TURNED OUT TO BE TRULY DELIGHTFUL.

Su’s father looked embarrassed. "They were caught red-handed, so they can only be released after undergoing ideological education tomorrow."

When the Sun Family heard the issue had been dealt with, and there was no need to borrow money for a rescue or to ask for favors any longer, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It was unclear how the two families negotiated, but they agreed to arrange the wedding quickly once the pair were released.

Little did they know, they were relieved too soon.

How could Yunyi let them off so easily? Right after the incident, she found a public phone on the street and called Hua Wanqing.

Hua Wanqing had been investigating the Su Family for the past few days. Now, he didn’t need to take action himself; he could simply seize the opportunity and made a phone call directly.

That evening, Yunyi, unable to contain her curiosity about the space, slipped into the Spiritual Stone Space after ensuring the doors and windows were secured.

First, she visited the spot where she had planted the watermelon seeds. The sprouts watered with Spatial Well Water had already grown to half a finger’s height, while those watered with tap water showed no change.

This comparison made her realize she would have to use the Spatial Well Water sparingly in the future.

Although plants could only grow in the gaps between the stones in this space, Yunyi was overjoyed. At least I can sustain myself, she thought.

Curious about this space, she hurried towards the Stone House not far away, hoping to find the information she wanted there.

As she approached its stone door, it opened automatically, giving Yun Yiyi quite a start.

As someone who possessed a ’cheat,’ she quickly accepted the phenomenon. There’s a cause for everything, she had always believed.

Stepping into the house, she was greeted by a completely different sight.

Antique rosewood furniture filled her view. On the curio shelves against the back wall, various colorful porcelain objects were displayed—to say they were worth a thousand gold pieces would be an understatement.

There was a room on each side, both without doors at their entrances.

The compartment on the east side was separated by a partition made of fine brocade, while the compartment on the west was divided by curtains strung with pearls—an extravagant luxury.

Beneath the curio shelves was a row of cabinets. Yunyi drew closer and opened them. Half contained complete sets of tea utensils, and the rest held alcohol sets, each piece exquisitely crafted.

To the east was the bedroom, furnished entirely with rosewood: an exquisite Canopy Bed, a dressing table, a wardrobe, tables, and chairs. The bedding was all made of fine brocade.

The wardrobe was filled with traditional costumes, each a fine set complete with matching shoes.

The dressing table had drawers on one side and a small, single-door cabinet on the other. Inside lay various jewelry pieces; a casual glance was enough to tell they were all masterfully crafted.

The study to the west was furnished entirely with Huali wood. The bookshelves were packed with books, and the cabinets below held high-quality brushes, ink, paper, and inkstones. On the desk rested two exquisite jade mountain carvings used as paperweights, a fine inkstone, and various calligraphy brushes on a pen rack.

In the center of the desk lay a jade tablet with the words "Destined to assimilate" written on the paper beneath it.

Before Yunyi could react, the jade tablet shot straight towards her forehead.

It took her a while to collect herself. From the jade tablet, she learned that this space was called the Spiritual Stone Space.

Each colored stone within it had its specific use. For example, the Ocean Blue Stone could lower temperatures, and the Terahertz Stone could protect against radiation. The yellow-green Warm Stone could not only ward off cold but also relieve fatigue. The emerald Cold Stone was capable of replenishing trace elements, balancing the body’s natural systems, improving immunity, and strengthening the physique. Lapis Lazuli could elevate spirituality, stabilize emotions, and protect from evil. The White Crystal Stone had the power to purify the soul, ward off evil spirits, enhance memory, and benefit health. The Amethyst Stone could focus the mind, enhance memory, and develop spirituality, serving as a guardian stone of love. The Rose Stone could strengthen heart and lung health, relax tense emotions, enhance personal charm, assist in improving interpersonal relationships, increase popularity, and attract business. Known as the ’stone of luck,’ Turquoise could promote cell regeneration, enhance immunity, increase brain responsiveness, attract wealth, promote prosperity, ward off evil, and ensure safety. The Garnet could strengthen one’s vitality, energy, and endurance, promote regenerative abilities and blood circulation, enhance the desire for life, and also improve one’s temperament and self-confidence. Citrine Stone could help soothe and regulate mood and emotions, and it could also treat stomach cold. Wearing it might bring unexpected wealth. Tea Crystal Stone could promote rapid healing of wounds, enhance immunity, restore cell vitality, have an anti-aging effect, enhance sexual and reproductive capabilities, and reduce or prevent insomnia.

Yunyi deciphered these effects from the information she had acquired. She also learned that the stones in the space were graded; higher grades naturally possessed stronger effects.

The final entry was about the Spring Spirit in the pavilion. Its water could detoxify and beautify the skin, regulate bodily functions, enhance the efficacy of medicines, and aid plant growth. Furthermore, soaking the various functional stones in Spring Spirit Water could amplify their effects.

Yunyi’s eyes gleamed. I initially thought this space was rather useless, but it turns out to be absolutely amazing! she mused. This is practically an invitation for me to just kick back and enjoy life!

It took her a long while to calm her bursting excitement, and she prepared to continue exploring other parts of the house.

At the rear of the living room, another door led further into the house.

Passing through, she found the kitchen, which directly faced the back of the living room. It had one large stove and two smaller ones, and the side shelves were fully equipped with an assortment of kitchen utensils, from spoons to steaming baskets—everything one could possibly need.

The layout of this rear section of the house was the same as the front, with the west side compartment functioning as a storage room.

Although called a storeroom, it was actually full of treasures: gold and silver ornaments, porcelain, brocades, silks, and various top-quality fine cottons were neatly placed on the shelves.

She was certain someone had set up a formation in this house. This storage room, for instance, didn’t look large. However, as she explored it, she realized it likely held several times more items than her initial visual estimate.

In the east side compartment was an open-air natural hot spring pool; apparently, the house had been built here specifically because of it.

Walking in, she discovered it connected to the bedroom; a gentle push could open the stone door—an aspect she had overlooked earlier.

Thinking about the effects of the Spring Spirit Water, her heart suddenly raced.

She took a porcelain bowl from the kitchen and walked directly towards the pavilion.

Once at the well, she crouched down and drew up half a bowl of water.

First, she tried a small sip. The water was sweet and invigorating.

With a tilt of her head, she drank the entire half bowl.

There was no discomfort, and the anticipated pain did not come.

But just as she was losing patience, she noticed a grayish-brown sticky substance appearing on her skin.

Yunyi immediately understood. These must be the toxins being expelled from my body, she realized.

She couldn’t stand it. She quickly left the space, took a set of clean clothes from her room, and then slipped back into the space.

She made her way straight to the hot spring, undressed, and got into the pool.

Instantly, a wave of relief washed over her. Yunyi couldn’t help but exclaim inwardly, This hot spring must also have the effect of eliminating fatigue!
