Chapter 19 Creating Mystery and Momentum

Kong Nishang sneaked out of the mansion after lunch today. Her father, Magistrate Kong, made her stay at home to memorize her lessons, and he wouldn't allow her to leave the house if she couldn't memorize them.

While her father was at the county office in the afternoon, she had her maid, Guopan, dress up in her clothes and pretend that she was sitting in the study reading.

She secretly slipped out of the mansion through the back door, intending to buy some sweets to soothe her brain, which had suffered greatly from memorizing texts these past few days.

She's been studying and memorizing at home every day for the past few days, and she feels like her brain is about to give out, so she urgently needs to eat some sweets to replenish it.

Candied hawthorn, candied fruit, cloud cake, and sweet and sour fruit tea, etc.

Thinking of all the food, she quickened her pace and bought a skewer of candied hawthorns from a vendor on Huanxi Street. She ate them as she swayed towards the pastry shop.

Just as she arrived at the entrance of "Yunji" and was about to go in, she saw two girls walking past her with small empty cups in their hands, excitedly discussing how delicious the milk tea they had just finished drinking was.

After hearing their description, Kong Nishang was instantly captivated. She saw a large crowd gathered around a small stall across the street, and she guessed that the milk tea they were talking about must have come from there.

She stopped her steps from entering "Yunji" and turned to walk towards the crowd.

Having finally squeezed in and gotten the last cup of bubble tea, she was instantly hooked and couldn't stop.

After enjoying the milk tea, all other desserts seemed insignificant; only milk tea truly satisfied her.

And so Kong Nishang got her ticket and happily followed the others to the "Fairyland," completely forgetting that there was a maid named Guopan at home who was anxiously waiting for her to return to the study.

After finally getting through the long queue, she was completely numb from watching the crowd in front of her swipe their tickets and disappear.

So, following the same procedure, she easily verified her ticket and finally got inside.

When she stood within the circle of light in front of the large screen, it showed that her spending power for this transaction was only 20.

Kong Nishang regretted spending so much money on other food earlier. Now that she had finally made it to this magical place, she was worried that she wouldn't have enough money to buy more delicious food later.

Looking further down, she discovered that it was further explained that 20 coins of silver she carried were equivalent to 20 points of spending power, and that her jade pendant could actually be exchanged for points of spending power.

Jade?

Kong Nishang then realized that before she came out, she was worried that she wouldn't have enough money to buy things, so she went to the storeroom to try and steal something valuable.

She dared not touch her mother's jewelry, so she could only choose a jade pendant that her father had worn when he was young to keep on her person.

Since the jade pendant had been sitting idle in the warehouse for a long time, she kept it on her person just in case.

If she really doesn't have enough money, she can pawn it first. When her father is in a good mood and gives her some monthly allowance, she can redeem her father's jade pendant.

At this moment, she did not realize that her father's jade pendant was likely to enter the [Fairyland] and never return.

She was secretly relieved that she had brought a jade pendant with her. She hadn't expected the jade pendant to be so valuable. Now she felt much more confident.

Bai Mengran counted until she reached Kong Nishang, which made a total of ten people. She led these ten people in first, and after speaking with Xiao Yi, she handed over the rest to her to lead.

"Mr. Bai, is this the [Fairyland]? But why is it all dark inside and I can't see anything?"

Kong Nishang was really curious and couldn't help but ask the shop owner, who looked only a few years older than her and was extremely beautiful.

"No, we are currently at the entrance to the [Fairyland]. I will lead you forward to go inside."

After explaining to Kong Nishang, Bai Mengran turned around and raised her voice to everyone, "Through the operation just now, [Fairyland] has identified everyone's information and the money they are carrying."

After that, you can make purchases at any shop in the [Fairyland] simply by scanning your face. After placing an order by scanning your face, the corresponding amount of money will be automatically deducted and change will be given immediately.

If you don't have enough cash on you, you can also evaluate the valuable items you have in front of any large screen, and exchange them for money if you think the price is right.

I'll teach you all how to order and make your purchases in a moment. Now, let me officially lead you into our [Wonderland]!

To enter the "fairyland," one must first experience darkness.

Bai Mengran led the eight girls and two children along the cave entrance. The group felt a sudden darkness before their eyes, and then the light returned.

The cave disappeared, and what appeared before them was an extraordinary place they had never seen before.

The heat in my body instantly dissipated, as if a cool and gentle breeze had swept over my entire body, and every pore opened up.

The shop had a unique design and was brightly lit; everything inside was unfamiliar to them.

"Huh, where am I? It feels like I'm in a dream. Could it be that I've really arrived in a celestial paradise?"

Someone asked a question, breaking the silence. Her words echoed the thoughts of everyone present.

Seeing that the place was surrounded by white mist, everyone felt as if they were on a cloud.

This... isn't this truly a fairyland!

Bai Mengran coughed lightly twice as a tactic, put her index finger to her lips to make a "shh" sound, and mysteriously shook her head, lowering her voice to say, "The Buddha said it cannot be spoken, it cannot be spoken. Some things can only be understood intuitively..."

This seemed to confirm their suspicions to everyone, and their eyes filled with awe.

Bai Mengran smiled secretly; the simplicity of the ancients in this respect was just as she wished!

Sure enough, anything that can't be explained always has to be given a touch of fantasy; it's been the same all time.

"Alright, everyone, as you can see, the shops that are currently open in [Wonderland] are 'Unforgettable Convenience Store' and 'Unforgettable Milk Tea Shop', and the remaining shops will open for business one after another."

Bai Mengran acted as a tour guide, leading the way and taking them to the nearest convenience store as their first stop.

At the entrance, I could only see the outline of the convenience store. Only when I got closer could I see the interior furnishings and decorations through a transparent door. Everything was new and exciting.

"Mother, this mud is so beautiful! It's all smooth and changes color. Tian'er loves it here!" He Qintian gently tugged at her mother Zhang's sleeve, her words still a little unclear, but she kept trying to express herself.

Zhang picked up the three-year-old boy and lifted him up with some difficulty.

"Sweetie, Mommy will buy you something delicious later."

They stood in the middle of the line, watching as the people in front of them went through the bright, fully automatic glass door one by one.

Each time someone enters, the door opens by itself from the middle, accompanied by a beautiful melody. After the person goes inside, the door closes again as if it were aware of the situation.

When it was finally their turn, He Qintian waved her short legs and struggled to get off Zhang Shi. She didn't want her mother to carry her; she wanted to go in by herself.

Zhang had no choice but to put her down, take her little hand, and lead the impatient Xiao Qintian inside as well.
