Chapter 39: Spiritual Energy Enters the Eyes
After starting to fold the golden lotus, more spiritual energy and light spots were attracted.

There were always three spiritual light spots hovering around Song Miaozhu's hands and the golden lotus, but they neither merged into the golden lotus nor were willing to enter her body.

With her previous experience, Song Miaozhu became more calm. The spiritual light spots were hovering, but it was only because her paper-making skills were not good enough and the things she made were not good enough.

As long as you calm down and practice your skills seriously, they will come eventually.

Sure enough, when she folded out a first-grade six-petal golden lotus, a spiritual light spot merged into the golden lotus. The quality of the golden lotus did not improve, but the other two spiritual light spots merged into her body.

Song Miaozhu felt an itch in her throat and couldn't help coughing violently.

The three kittens sleeping at her feet were frightened and ran away.

After coughing a few times, she suddenly felt that her entire chest and lungs were more open than ever before.

She felt that these spiritual light spots were like a panacea, changing her body bit by bit, and had some of the effects of cleansing the essence and marrow as described in ancient books.

Although she didn't know what the final outcome would be, Song Miaozhu could clearly feel that they were all good changes, so she became more attentive in making paper-cuts.

It started with the arms, then the chest, abdomen, back, legs and feet, and finally the head.

The overall feeling is that the body is lighter, more agile, and the skin is better.

It was not until she made a first-grade nine-petal golden lotus that the spiritual light merged into her eyes.

Song Miaozhu suddenly felt a huge change in her vision.

The spiritual light spots were not just the two or three that appeared when she was making paper-cuttings, but actually existed in the air all the time.

Although it is sparse and thinner than the yin energy in the world of the living, it does exist.

It looked like shimmering white sand, clearly existing within her field of vision, yet it did not obstruct her view at all.

Even without making paper-made items, Song Miaozhu could see the spiritual energy in the air. He knew that his third eye had truly opened this time.

She stood up and looked around curiously.

The spiritual light spots were floating around. The wind could not blow them away, people could not see them, and Song Miaozhu reached out to grab them, but could not catch them.

The hand went straight through, which was completely different from the way paper-cutting is done, where the hand is absorbed into the body with just a light touch.

These spiritual light spots and the surrounding environment seemed to be on two layers and had no contact with each other.

They also do not prefer things that are born and raised naturally, as described in ancient books.

The number of spiritual light spots around the century-old locust tree outside the store is about the same as elsewhere.

However, at the entrance of the store, where she often makes paper-made items, the number of spiritual light spots is slightly more than elsewhere.

Song Miaozhu sat down and folded another golden lotus. This time she could see it more clearly than before.

When she folded, all the spiritual energy and light spots around her gathered towards her, but only the three closest spiritual energy and light spots became truly active, as if they had crossed some kind of boundary and truly arrived in reality.

"Boss Song! I'm going to get a box of mineral water. I'll scan the money and give it to you!" [36 yuan received from Zhifubao]

"Okay! Welcome back next time!" Song Miaozhu sat at the door without raising her head. She was still folding her nine-petal golden lotus in her hand, observing the movement of the spiritual light spot.

Cheng Ziyang walked a few steps with the bottle of mineral water, then turned back and said, "Boss Song, my shop will be renovated in about a week..."

Song Miaozhu had just finished folding the golden lotus and looked up and said, "Congratulations! I wish you a prosperous business and abundant wealth!"

"Thank you!" Cheng Ziyang hesitated for a moment, and said a little embarrassedly: "The opening is scheduled for next Saturday. We have promoted it in advance, so there may be a lot of customers coming. I have something I want to ask you for help..."

Song Miaozhu had just absorbed two more spiritual energy points, and her mind became clearer. In addition, her third eye was fully opened, and she could truly see the spiritual energy. She was in a very good mood and said after hearing this:
"What's the matter? I'll definitely help if I can! After all, we're the only two shops in Huaihua Lane. If your business is good, mine won't be bad either, right?"

During this period, apart from the elderly people in the town who came to her paper shop to buy some paper ingots, the only customer was Cheng Ziyang who came every day to buy mineral water and drinks for the decoration workers in his shop.

He is not only her neighbor, but also currently the largest customer of her paper shop.

"I would like to ask you to sit at the door and fold gold ingots, lotus flowers and so on during the three days of the opening, just like you did during this period... After that, you can bring your friends to my store at any time and enjoy all the themes in the store for free. In addition, I can also stop selling any alcoholic beverages and snacks in the store." Cheng Ziyang said.

Song Miaozhu was stunned. "What's so difficult about this? Even if you don't tell me, I spend most of my day making paper-cuts. But how can this help you?"

"Hmm... Combined with the locust trees in the alley and the names of our two shops, it has a very spooky atmosphere."

After Cheng Ziyang finished speaking, fearing that she would be angry, he quickly said, "Of course, I'm not saying you're scary, but paper-made things easily evoke associations..."

Song Miaozhu: “…”

She wondered why this person came to her store, and it turned out that he had the same idea as her.

She also thought that this horror escape room might boost the business of her own paper shop!
"Okay! Happy working with you!" Song Miaozhu said, then suddenly glanced at the wooden plaque with the word "weird" written on it hanging at the door of his shop. She asked, "Did you finish your plaque so quickly?"

"Yes! It was made by an apprentice in the wood carving business. I asked him to make it a little rough on purpose. After I brought it back, I splashed some red paint on it myself. The effect is pretty good, right?" said Cheng Ziyang.

"It's pretty good." Song Miaozhu said.

After he left, Song Miaozhu poked Zhao Mumu on the green bubble.

[Meow Bamboo: How is my plaque coming along? ]

Zhao Mumu: That... might take a little time... You might not believe it, but Master... well, why don't you come and see for yourself?

Song Miaozhu frowned when she saw the reply.

Originally, she asked about the plaque for her own paper shop because she saw that the plaque Cheng Ziyang had ordered behind her had been hung up.

It has already exceeded the time that Grandpa Zhao told her. Given Grandpa Zhao's personality, this shouldn't happen!
Zhao Mumu's hesitant reply, could it be that something happened to Grandpa Zhao?

Song Miaozhu's heart sank. She quickly put the things back into the shop, closed the door, and went to the wood carving shop.

From a distance, I could see that the door of the wood carving shop was closed. It was only two o'clock in the afternoon!
There were many spiritual points of light on the exquisitely carved door. Song Miaozhu didn't bother to look at it any longer. She quickly went forward and knocked on the door: "Grandpa Zhao! Sister Mu Mu! Are you there?"
