Chapter 317 Cold Wave
"There are several types of training fields for you to choose from: one-time gravity field, two-time gravity field, three-time gravity field, five-time gravity field, and ten-time gravity field. However, I suggest you start with the one-time gravity field."
"Okay, whatever you say. Can this gravitational field be used to adjust time?"
Yufei thought that she had only just started training, and using a gravity field of 1x was safe and sufficient. There's a saying in martial arts: "Desire is not always fulfilled."
The weight was too much for her to bear, but she could think of other ways, so she asked Xiao Jun.
"Yes, but it requires extra charm points." Little Jun rubbed his hands together, looking like he was easy to talk to and that there was no problem charm points couldn't solve.
If this little bit of charm isn't enough, just add a little more.
Yufei rolled her eyes.
"Okay, okay, tell me! How is charm calculated?" This money-grubber!
"Hehe~ It's 100,000 more for doubling the time on Earth, 200,000 more for doubling it, and 300,000 more for tripling it. These are the only options for increasing the time now."
Xiao Jun, with an attitude that money talks, quickly explained the available options to Yufei.
Yufei chose the highest level option, selecting the maximum amount of time within her daily training hours on Blue Star to train as much as possible.
Through her continuous efforts, her progress has significantly improved.
During winter break, she was finally able to put up a fight against the cat-shaped black cat.
The summer of 2008 was hit by the biggest blizzard in the past decade, especially in Hunan Province, where a severe frost occurred.
Yufei vividly remembers that in her past life, a sudden frost occurred, which the government hadn't anticipated. The cold weather had damaged the power grid, causing a large-scale power outage in Xiangcheng.
The frost also increased the difficulty of repairs for maintenance workers, and the entire transportation system was paralyzed.
Large numbers of people traveling home for the Spring Festival were stuck in traffic, and there were reportedly some accidents.
In her past life, Yufei was just an innocent high school senior, and she doesn't remember what happened.
Of course, she couldn't directly tell the officials that this winter would be harsh and trouble would ensue.
She could only subtly remind Uncle Li how shrewd Minister Li was.
Moreover, those who do well in officialdom are very good at reading people's expressions and moods.
Minister Li had always taken Yufei's words seriously, and he quickly deciphered the message she was conveying.
Therefore, this winter did not suffer the heavy losses that the government did in the previous life. They also received early warnings of a harsh winter, and their students were given an early holiday.
Yufei was supposed to go to the world of mecha during this long winter break, but unexpectedly, she hasn't gone there yet.
Cui Yu'an and the others returned first.
"Huh? What's going on here?" Cui Yu'an didn't go back to the Cui family home, but instead returned to Longyuan Town. He Junlin and Xie Yiren also didn't rush home.
After reporting to Minister Li, they were given leave, and they followed Cui Yu'an to Longyuan Town.
We're planning to stay for a few days before heading back. In Longyuan Town, Yufei is the one who knows this place best.
So they came looking for Yufei.
"Hehe, the mecha world is currently in its cold season, and it's much colder there than here."
The temperature there must be around -57 degrees Celsius right now! We only learned about this after experiencing the cold season. Everyone there, from insectoids and mutated plants and animals to humans, has a habit of sleeping in the east.
The base was notified to take a break and reopen after winter. Before the winter, the person in charge reminded everyone to buy enough nutrient solution for the winter.
On the first day of the cold season, I braved the extreme cold and went out.
My goodness, the entire base is practically dead; all the shopping malls and shops are closed.
The streets and alleys were deserted. Seeing this, we discussed it and decided to come back.
He Junlin answered Yufei's question before the others could even finish theirs.
Yufei nodded. "So that's how it is." "My goodness, -57 degrees Celsius!" she thought. "For a girl from the south, I can't even imagine how cold that is."
"Is this Ai Qiqiu, Sister Ai Qiqiu?" Yufei noticed a girl who had come with Cui Yu'an and the others. The girl looked about 70-80% like Yufei.
Yufei guessed that it must have been someone who impersonated her when she wasn't in the mecha world.
Ai Qiqiu nodded, extended her right hand, and smiled at Yufei.
"Ai Qiqiu, it's a pleasure to meet you."
"Liu Yufei, it's a pleasure to meet you too," Yufei said, shaking Ai Qiqiu's outstretched right hand.
After exchanging greetings, Ai Qiqiu stepped aside and remained silent. Yufei guessed that Ai Qiqiu was not a talkative person, so she didn't try to engage her in conversation further.
Instead, she enthusiastically introduced Longyuan Town to them.
"This is the main ancestral temple. It's a pity you've come at the wrong time. There are celebrations here in the summer, and at that time, a flower called 'summer flower' is in full bloom."
"Come and visit this place, I guarantee you'll see some truly unique and beautiful scenery."
Yufei proudly stated that now every blade of grass, every tree, and every building in Longyuan Town reflects her ideas.
Moreover, through her efforts, they became the number one tourist destination that visitors voted as wanting to retire in.
All of this highlights the beauty of the scenery and the sense of well-being here.
It's a pity they came here in winter; there don't seem to be many fun or interesting places to see in winter.
This made Yufei wonder if winter here was too monotonous.
Like many other tourist cities, winter has its own unique charm. Yufei felt she should carefully consider what special attractions and activities could be developed for winter.
However, that's not the time to worry about. Right now, the main thing is to take good care of her friends.
"You've been in the mecha world for so long, you must be craving something delicious, come on! I'll take you to get some good food."
"Really? That's wonderful! I'm so tired of hot pot, look at all the ulcers in my mouth!"
Xie Yiren, who was a lady at their first meeting, has now completely let loose, shamelessly peeling back her lips to show Yufei her ulcer.
Yufei was overjoyed.
"It just so happens that the old traditional Chinese medicine doctor in our area recently got some Niuhuang Jiedu Pills, and they're incredibly effective. Come to my house later, and I'll give you a small bottle."
There's no old Chinese medicine doctor here; this is prepared by the master who teaches Chinese medicine in this Niuhuang Detoxification Space.
Unfortunately, she had little talent and patience for learning traditional Chinese medicine.
She only learned a superficial understanding, and her traditional Chinese medicine teacher sighed that she was hopeless and, like her singing teacher, decisively chose to give up and find another better student.
I occasionally come back to prepare some commonly used medicines for Yufei, and look! We just happened to need them again.
"Then we won't have hot pot today. Instead, I'll treat you all to our local specialty, 'Bo Bo Cai' (钵钵菜)."
Bo Bo Cai is similar to hot pot, but also quite different. You could say it's a mini hot pot with many different broth bases.
The most distinctive pot dishes here include cured pork trotters, beer-braised duck, beef offal, cured pork stewed with winter bamboo shoots, and braised beef.
Our pot here is a type of earthenware container, somewhat like a large porcelain bowl. It can be used to stew all sorts of things. As for whether it tastes good or not, you'll have to try it later and you'll know.”
