Chapter 1225 The Sudden Time Travel

"Then why not go to bed together to study it?"

"It's not that I don't... um?"

Shen Qingxi felt a chill run down her spine as she turned to look at the girl behind her, who was wearing a snow-white mink coat.

“Eek! You…”

Facing Miss Li's "I'll listen to your explanation" look, Shen Qingxi subconsciously wiped the cold sweat from her forehead. Just as she was thinking about how to argue, she saw Wang Yunxiao next to her suddenly stumble and almost fall to the ground.

Holy crap, is it really that serious? Why are you so guilty?
Wang Yunxiao completely ignored the astonishment of the two girls beside him, reached out and grabbed the lamppost tightly, taking several deep breaths before he slowly calmed down.

He has just experienced a time travel.

"Are you OK?"

Just as Li Mumu was about to confront Shen Qingxi and slowly torture her, she immediately realized that Wang Yunxiao was not acting.

"It's alright, you guys... talk first..."

Wang Yunxiao was still dizzy and lightheaded. He shook his head, trying to suppress his discomfort, took out the chocolate he always carried with him from his pocket, tore open the wrapper, stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it haphazardly a couple of times, and then turned and left.

It is said that once a person's cochlea is damaged, it will stimulate the nerves in the brain, causing an instant loss of balance and symptoms such as dizziness and vomiting.

He felt that he was in such a state right now.

Of course, this is also thanks to the fact that his perception has evolved to a very high level, otherwise he wouldn't be so sensitive.

Just like animals become restless before an earthquake, but people don't feel anything.

But he did the exact opposite.

Ordinary people wouldn't feel anything, but he felt as if a road roller had run over his forehead.

Stumbling and staggering, Wang Yunxiao rushed into the nearest tavern by the dock, casually tossed down a few silver dollars, grabbed a bottle of foreign liquor from the bar (he didn't know what brand it was), and gulped down half the bottle in one go.

This foreign liquor was truly awful—to say it tasted like horse urine would be an understatement; its disgusting, strange smell almost made Wang Yunxiao vomit on the spot.

Fortunately, the strong stimulation of alcohol finally overwhelmed the sense of imbalance that kept swirling in my brain.

"What's wrong? Don't scare me!"

A pair of soft hands gently reached out from behind and hugged Wang Yunxiao's waist.

When Wang Yunxiao turned around, he saw Li Mumu's worried expression.

"Time travel".

He simply said four words, and Li Mumu immediately understood, but then even bigger questions arose.

I've experienced time travel before, so why such a strong reaction?

It's like morning sickness?
Wang Yunxiao shook his head. His mind was completely blank, like it was filled with mud, and he couldn't explain it clearly no matter what he tried.

"Shen Qingxi has a car; he can take me to the Secret Service."

"it is good!"

As soon as Wang Yunxiao got into Shen Qingxi's car, he slumped down in the back seat. Li Mumu caught him and let him lean on her shoulder.

Shen Qingxi sat in the front passenger seat, turning her head to look left and right, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.

I was going to say something witty, but the atmosphere seemed a bit off.

"You two be careful."

Wang Yunxiao rubbed his temples and weakly reminded him, "The time might need to be moved up."

What time?

Shen Qingxi looked bewildered, but quickly came to her senses.

Wang Yunxiao was referring to signal flags.

When the high tide arrives, the signal flag team will be activated.

Shen Qingxi's eyes darted around, and it was unclear what she was thinking.

When Wang Yunxiao arrived at the Special Service Bureau, he had recovered considerably. He found Liu Zhihan and went straight to the point: "I just experienced a time travel, which should be related to the President..."

Liu Zhihan raised her hand to shut him up, and at the same time, she flicked the pages of her book to seal the doors and windows, creating a closed space in her office.

"Okay, let's start now, let's begin from the beginning, and let's not mix in too much personal subjective emotion."

To be honest, Wang Yunxiao didn't know much about time travel.

Everyone knows that nuclear bombs are incredibly powerful, but do you know exactly how they are made?
Even if you know the entire process and formula, and I provide you with the materials, can you recreate it by hand?

The same goes for time travel; the extent of its influence is a mystery.

The only known fact is that, like "time travel" and "world line travel," ordinary people with insufficient cognitive abilities or a weak understanding of the connection cannot perceive it.

Forget about high-tech things like time travel; even if you scroll through TikTok every day, you still won't remember many trending news stories.

Wang Yunxiao didn't experience much of the time travel that Li Mumu went through last time.

This time was no different; apart from himself, no one else seemed to notice.

This is not normal.

What's even more unusual is that Wang Yunxiao doesn't remember why this time travel happened; at least in his memory, there's nothing that could be connected to time travel.

The last memory in my mind is...

"White Lotus Sect bandits with long braids kidnapping children in the streets?"

Liu Zhihan unconsciously tapped the table lightly, lost in thought.

Wang Yunxiao knew this sounded absurd. It was like you were at home eating hotpot and singing, when suddenly a guy wearing red underwear kicked open your door, grabbed your shoulders with his blood-stained hands, and begged you to save the world.

What the hell is wrong with the world that I have to save? Is some kind of magical girl from anime who has descended into reality and I have to win her over?

But he really couldn't remember what happened after that.

"Did you experience about a month during this time travel?"

"A month and a half."

"You believe that Young Master Huang performed time travel?"

"Anyway, in my knowledge, during that period, only Young Master Huang, who had been promoted to the position of Taiyin Jun, had the ability to adjust time. It could also be the Special Service Bureau, but since you, Teacher Liu, are unaware of this, I can only suspect her."

It doesn't make sense, but there are no further clues at the moment.

"There is another possibility."

After pondering for a moment, Liu Zhihan gave an answer that Wang Yunxiao did not expect.

"It's possible that the approaching high tide triggered the world line's immune protection mechanism."

Wang Yunxiao: "..."

Can you translate this into Chinese?
"Just like when a person is sick, the first thing they do is get a fever, but the fever itself is not a disease. Rather, it is the body's attempt to kill the bacteria and viruses that have invaded the body by raising its temperature."

Liu Zhihan patiently explained to him: "Theoretically speaking, our real world should also have a similar immune protection mechanism. When the high tide comes, it can offset the harm caused by the high tide to the real world to a certain extent through time travel or similar methods."

What does "should also" mean?

"It's the first time any young woman has ever been in a sedan chair, and none of them have ever truly experienced a major tide, so they can only speculate and cannot confirm it."

Liu Zhihan said seriously, "The President's itinerary must be kept strictly confidential. I'll go and communicate with the higher-ups. Don't tell anyone about this. By 'anyone,' I mean your wife." "I understand."

“Go and investigate those two beggars; they might have information you didn’t have at the time.”

"it is good."

Wang Yunxiao came out of his office, found Li Mumu waiting outside, and hugged her, whispering to comfort her, "It's all over now, don't worry about me. I'm going to take care of something now. Don't go home yet, go to Shen Qingxi's place or go back to Xiquan Mountain, it's fine either way."

Then he said to Shen Qingxi next to him, "You should get on with what we agreed on as soon as possible. Don't worry about Tianhua. Just keep a low profile and behave yourself for now."

"I've always been very low-key!"

Shen Qingxi was filled with grief and indignation.

I only asked you to kill someone and, incidentally, date me.

Who would have thought you'd make such a big deal out of it?

After Wang Yunxiao left, Li Mumu turned around, the weak and worried expression on her face gone, and tilted her head to stare at the guilty-looking Shen Qingxi.

"It seems your relationship has progressed quite quickly while I was away."

"No, no, it was all a joke."

Shen Qingxi gave a dry laugh and tried to argue.

"What did you two agree on?"

"It's nothing, I just used your personal safety to blackmail him into going on a date with me..."

Seeing the murderous smile on Li Mumu's face, Shen Qingxi quickly waved her hand: "Just kidding. I have something serious to tell you. Come back with me first, and we can talk about it on the way."

"Knowing you as I do, you don't seem to be joking."

"Can we stop worrying about this for now? Your husband is already in that state..."

"Do you need to worry about what my husband is like?"

"You're really something... sigh."

As she walked out the gate to her car, Shen Qingxi couldn't help but sigh, "Even the ancients had the saying of entrusting one's wife and children to another. Can't you uphold this traditional virtue and ask your husband to take care of me if you don't come back?"

"Are you entrusting your wife and children to the right direction?"

Li Mumu couldn't help but complain, "I can tell you're hungry too. If you really can't find someone, go find someone properly yourself. Stop thinking about my place all the time."

Shen Qingxi glanced at her silently without saying a word.

It's too much trouble to find it myself.

They also have a buy-one-get-one-free offer here.

Back at her company, Shen Qingxi led Li Mumu to her newly renovated luxurious master bedroom and said with a smile, "Although I don't know when you came back, it's not too late to welcome you back now. Shall we have a proper welcome first?"

Li Mumu glanced at the large bathtub in the washroom, spacious enough for a child to swim in, and felt that Shen Qingxi had ill intentions.

Why was it designed to be so big?

"Enjoy it, otherwise how am I supposed to spend all this money I've earned?"

Shen Qingxi quickly took off her shirt: "When I designed this, I told them not to try to save money for me. The more I spend, the more they earn, and the more the social economy can develop. There aren't many big bosses with a conscience like me these days. They all just eat and don't excrete, like greedy beasts... This bath is designed for monogamous couples, perfect for taking a bath together."

"How many people are involved in this monogamous relationship you're talking about?"

Shen Qingxi chuckled foolishly, trying to act cute to get away with it.

Li Mumu glared at her and began to undress herself.

To be fair, the large bathtub and sauna she set up are really nice. It's obvious that the inspiration came from the Yagyu Dojo. Maybe even the designer was hired from there.

Not only the designs, but also the people were brought back.

Li Mumu was enjoying her soak when the Nanyun sisters, dressed in Japanese yukatas, walked in with small, quick steps, carrying fresh fruits and vegetables, various drinks, and snacks.

"Weren't they supposed to become temple keeper?"

Li Mumu vaguely remembered that before she left, Yan Yu'an had already made arrangements for the fallen girls at the Yagyu Dojo, most of whom were transferred directly to the temple of Uesugi Risa.

As for the temple that Uesugi Risa built... well, that temple is now under Shen Qingxi's jurisdiction.

The little witch didn't have the brains for that; she should just stay obediently on the altar and enjoy the incense offerings.

"Temple keepers don't make money; it's too lonely living with only a lamp and a Buddha."

Shen Qingxi chuckled and hugged the shy Nan Yun, giving her a light kiss on the cheek.

“They are still temple caretakers now, and occasionally they come out to do odd jobs. It’s a happy thing that everyone is willing to do it, Qianhua, don’t you agree?”

"correct."

Damn, it's unbearable to watch.

Li Mumu covered her face and sighed. This woman had completely let herself go.

“I didn’t arrange this kind of service for your husband. It’s a private service that only our sisters can enjoy. He doesn’t even know about it.”

Shen Qingxi sighed deeply: "I offered my heart to the bright moon, but you took my kindness for granted."

You can shut up!
After a full-service massage, oil massage, bath, and sauna, the two sat on the sofa with chilled sweet milk in their hands.

It was great, but Li Mumu hadn't forgotten her business.

"What did you and my husband agree on?"

Why are you bringing up your husband again?

"Believe it or not, I'll strip you naked and throw you out the window right now."

"You are so cruel, heartless, cold-hearted, and unreasonable."

Shen Qingxi took a sip of milk, shrugged, and said, "Actually, I thought of a clumsy way."

"What a stupid method."

"Actually, time travel is more difficult when it's going against the current. If you're going to travel forward, it's not that difficult."

Li Mumu thought for a moment, and then it dawned on her.

"You mean hibernation?"

"Yes, if we get swept away by the spacetime turbulence and return to a certain point in the past, theoretically, we can just find a place to take a long nap and come back."

This theory is based on the premise of having sufficient technology and lifespan.

In the past, when everyone's strength was low, there was no need to consider this issue at all.

Li Mumu has now advanced from a Moon Demon to an Earth Immortal for the second time. Although the system did not immediately notify her how many years her lifespan would increase, she vaguely felt that her lifespan was no longer a problem for her.

Just like the legendary creatures of ancient mythology, they can close their eyes and sleep for decades or even centuries without any problem.

The only thing you need to consider is finding a safe enough place so that you won't be forcibly woken up in the middle of the night.

"To return safely, the first consideration is how to stay on the current timeline and not be thrown off. The second is to find a safe enough place that has not undergone major changes in the hundreds or thousands of years recorded in history."

Shen Qingxi leaned close to Li Mumu's ear and whispered, "I've already found a place like this, the Tianhou Palace."
