Chapter 15: Rules
This b*stard, could it be that he misunderstood that he liked Ye Ling, so he forcefully brought her from Stone Village to Willow Village? He was really capable!
Today, he even dared to come to his godmother’s house to find him. Was he expecting him to praise him?
The gentle evening breeze blew in, and Min Nan regained his calmness.
Although Dai Wei’s intention was wrong, it wasn’t necessarily a bad thing for Ye Ling.
Not to mention whether there were people around Ye Ling who wanted to harm her, just Wu De and Wu Bai’s family would not let Ye Ling off. They might even find trouble with Ye Ling. After coming to Willow Village, it would not be easy for those people to take revenge on Ye Ling.
However, Ye Ling’s arrival in Willow Village posed some troubles for him.
Currently, he was staying at his godmother’s house, and both of them were in the same village. Even if he intentionally avoided Ye Ling, he couldn’t guarantee that they wouldn’t cross paths. How would he face Ye Ling then?
If Ye Ling found out that he wasn’t a police officer, would she suspect something?
Min Nan felt a headache. 𝚋ｅｄ𝚗𝚘𝚟ｅ𝚕．𝚗ｅｔ

Ye Ling lay on the bed but wasn’t sleepy. After becoming familiar with her surroundings, she took out an old watch from her pocket with a badly worn strap and cracked lenses to confirm the time.
Then, she cleared her mind of distractions and sank her consciousness. Soon, she saw the small world enveloped in white mist.
She walked to the two small trees and picked up the “Ye Family’s Medical Code” passed down by her ancestors. She quickly skimmed through it.
This “Ye Family’s Medical Code” was incredibly rich in content, consisting of five parts.
The first part contained many ancient and lost folk remedies, the second part recorded the unique medicinal values of numerous rare plants, the third part focused on the study of the human body’s meridians and acupoints, the fourth part discussed theoretical foundations for diagnosing illnesses, and the fifth part provided a multitude of examples demonstrating specific treatment and saving lives.
Ye Ling treasured this book immensely, wishing she could read the thick volume in one go.
Suppressing her impulse, she only perused the section about medicinal herbs for about five minutes before closing the book and standing up. She allowed her consciousness to disperse and left the small world.
After returning to reality, she glanced at her worn-out watch.
Surprisingly, only a few seconds had passed!
Roughly estimating, the passage of time in the real world was approximately a hundred times faster than in the small world!
This ratio held significant importance. On one hand, it ensured Ye Ling’s safety, preventing others from easily detecting her abnormality when she entered the small world.
On the other hand, she might be extremely occupied in the real world, lacking sufficient time to study medicine. However, the time in the small world flowed slowly, granting her more time for learning!
Ye Ling took a deep breath and repeated the previous process, once again entering the small world. This time, she wasn’t as nervous and began to explore slowly.
She walked to the edge of the fog and reached out her hand to pass through it. However, upon touching the fog, she felt a gel-like resistance.
It seemed that there was no way to cross over.
What lay beyond the white fog?
Ye Ling couldn’t find an answer, so she decided not to dwell on it. She returned to the trees and studied the two unfamiliar species, which were likely unique to this small world.
Apart from that, the elements within the small world were monotonous, consisting only of streams and soil.
Ye Ling had already discovered that certain things from the outside world couldn’t be brought into the small world. When she entered the small world, she had the broken watch in her hand, but once inside, her hand was empty.
She didn’t know if other objects could be brought in, and whether the items within the small world could be taken out.
With a thought, Ye Ling grabbed a handful of soil and plucked a leaf from one of the small trees. She let her consciousness dissipate and returned to the real world.
She opened her hands. Her left hand was empty, but in her right hand lay a leaf.
After nearly two days of experimentation, Ye Ling finally discovered several rules of the small world.
First, each time she entered or left the small world, it would deplete her energy.
Second, plants from the small world could be brought into the real world, and their forms wouldn’t change significantly after leaving the small world.
Third, plants from the real world could also be brought into the small world.
It appeared that this unique space was not completely isolated from the real world.
However, there were certain limitations and rules to be followed.
